I auditioned because it seemed like a great opportunity to get connected with Venice Theatre and to sing. I stayed because of the people, the directors Brad and Peter and the fun!

It is so much fun to work with wonderful performers who have become dear friends. Under Brad Wage’s excellent direction, I have expanded both my singing repertoire and a greater appreciation of Broadway musicals, and gained valuable skills in performing with a group in live theatre.
