hi bunny--We met for the first time at the Dorset Playhouse in the winter of 2005 when I was holding auditions for "The Bet." As I looked around the small group in the rehearsal room I spotted a youthful-looking blonde-haired lady with a mischievous twinkle in her eye and I knew right away you were something special. You said later that you saw the cast call in the paper and decided, what the hell, this might be fun. And I'm so very glad you did. You wound up playing two roles: one of the wives on trial and a beauty parlor gossip. You pulled off both without a hitch. Not easy, considering all the fast, backstage costume changes. I'll never forget your feisty, terrific performances and how you belted out that first line: "EVERYBODY'S talking about the trial." You're an inspirational person, one of those rare people who bring a smile to your face whenever you think about them. I feel so lucky to know you.
