I am very honored and excited to share that the next show I'll be performing in is WITCH by Jen SIlverman with my artistic home, Idle Muse Theatre Company, at the Edge off Broadway Theater!
I am very much looking forward to this production, as my character has one of my favorite lines yet that I will get to say and the cast and creative team are full of old friends, and a few new friendly faces, as well! This show speaks very much to how I feel myself about the world and I am grateful to get to share that feeling/quandary with the Chicago theatre community and getting to talk more about it with everyone after the show! Read from the press release below for details on dates and where to get tickets!

A charming devil arrives in the quiet village of Edmonton to bargain for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth should be his easiest target, having been labeled a “witch” and cast out by the town, but her soul is not so readily bought. As the devil returns to convince her – and then returns again – unexpected passions flare, alliances are formed and the village is forever changed. An inventive retelling of a Jacobean drama, this sharp, subversive fable debates how much our souls are worth when hope is hard to come by.
The Witch cast includes Mara Kovacevic~ (she/her, Elizabeth); Nathaniel Kohlmeier (he/him, Scratch); Cameron Austin Brown (he/him, Cuddy); Xavier Lagunas~ (he/him, Frank); Stephen Dunn (he/him, Sir Arthur); Caty Gordon~ (she/her, Winnifred); Elise Soeder (she/her, u/s Elizabeth); Dryden Zurawski (they/he, u/s Scratch); Phillip Heflin (he/him, u/s Cuddy); Noah Lash (he/him, u/s Frank) and Andrew Bosworth (he/him, u/s Sir Arthur).
