The Minutes

Steppenwolf Theatre
Chicago, IL

November 09, 2017 - January 07, 2018

My first time on Steppenwolf's Chicago stage, and second show for them (Australian tour, August Osage County).  Its such a tremendous honor to be in this world premiere written by Tracy Letts, directed by Ana Shapiro with such a terrific cast.

Peninsula Players

An adaptation by Constance Cox of the Oscar Wilde short story.  My second season at this delightful, bucolic summer theatre.  Another comic turn in this delightfully silly show full of muddled murder attempts

Northlight Theatre
Skokie, IL

Wonderful dramatization of the Hurricane Sandy disaster, where so many Staten Island natives found their lives up-ended. Another chance to perform with Fran Guinan, Patrick Clear and my old dear friend Janet Brooks.

You Can't take it with you

11/20/2015

 
Northlight Theatre,
Skokie, IL

November 13 - December 20

Another show with my Northlight family, and a very large cast of talented actors, of all ages.  A well-known comedy this time.  I'm play Penny Sycamore, matriarch of a very eccentric household full of artists, dreamers, and inventors.

"...Penelope Sycamore (played by the very strong and comical Penny Slusher) ... Around the Town

"...The core family includes amateur playwriting mother Penelope (a daffy Penny Slusher) ..." Daily Herald

Chapatti

4/22/2014

 
Galway Arts Festival
Town Hall Theatre
July 15-27

About three months after "Chapatti" closed in Skokie, IL, it will transfer across the waves for a production at the famous Galway Arts Festival in Ireland.

This will be my second show for the Festival, having performed in the Galway production of Northlight's "Stella and Lou" just last  year. The festival, the city and of course the country are a sight to behold especially in July.

More about this production will be included as our departure draws nearer.
