 | This July, I'll be returning to The Towle Theatre as Atropos in the Midwest premiere of Adam Gwon and Sarah Hammond's String: "On a starry mountaintop, three sisters -- goddesses known as the Fates -- spin, measure, and snip the strings of life for every human on earth. After angering Zeus, they find themselves banished to a modern office building in the mortal world, where they continue their work hidden among the mortals whose destinies they weave. When the eldest sister meets a security guard in the building and falls in love, she bends the rules of Fate to keep him at her side -- but can the fabric of the Universe stand a flaw? An original musical about fate, love, and the imperfections that make us human." I'm excited to work with the Towle Theater team again! More information and tickets can be found here. |

 I am very excited to be playing Lilli Vanessi/Katherine in Big Noise Theatre's Kiss Me, Kate - we open tomorrow! The cast and crew have been a delight to work with, and I am thrilled to be part of this Cole Porter classic. Tickets are available here! I'm also adding the final touches to my first original cabaret, "They'll Be Sorry When I'm Famous": Join singer, songwriter, actor, Mortified Chicago alum, and mediocre guitar player Mikaela Sullivan as she unearths embarrassing original songs from her young adult life. Laugh along and relive the awkward memories as Mikaela tells tales about puppy love, breakups, rebounds, and teen angst. Featuring unedited, unembellished performances of her greatest hits (from a decade ago), THEY'LL BE SORRY WHEN I'M FAMOUS is a funny and poignant peek into the coming-of-age diaries of a lovesick, small town girl with rockstar dreams. Come out to Davenport's Piano Bar on Friday, October 12th at 8:00 PM! Tickets are available here; 21+, $15 cover, 2 drink minimum.
