Where were you born/raised? I was born in Christiansburg Virginia and raised in Richmond.
Tell us about your character. I play Albin. Partner, Mother, and performer.
What is your favorite Jerry Herman song? “And I Was Beautiful,” from Dear World.
Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people. I can eat fire.

Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people. When I was little and left alone in the house, I would parade around in my mother’s high heels.

What? That doesn’t surprise you?

Where were you born/raised? Boston, MA
Tell us about your character. Jacob is for sure one of the funniest characters I’ve gotten to play. He is so eager to please, yet marches to the beat of his own drum. In his mind, he’s the star of the show but he’s the biggest hot mess you’ll ever see put together. 
What is your favorite Jerry Herman song? “We Need a Little Christmas” from Mame.
Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people. My Britney Spears and Bill Cosby impressions are pretty amazing. 

Where were you born/raised? I was born in Silver Spring, MD, and currently live in Olney, MD.
Tell us about your character. Jean-Michel is the son of Georges, born to a mother, Sybil, who abandoned Georges and Jean-Michel when he was very young. He’s desperately in love with and marrying Anne, who, along with her parents, is coming to meet Jean-Michel’s family.  
What is your favorite Jerry Herman song? “When the Parade Passes By” from Hello Dolly.
Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people. I have eggs every single morning, and yet my cholesterol levels are GREAT!

Where were you born/raised? I was born in Columbia, MD, and grew up in Ellicott City, MD.
Tell us about your character. Anne Dindon is Jean Michel’s fiancée and daughter of Deputy Edouard Dindon, “the most famous anti-homosexual on the Riviera.”   
What is your favorite Jerry Herman song? My favorite Jerry Herman song is “Put on your Sunday Clothes.” I have always loved Hello Dolly, and have sang this song at many a gala, but it is WALL*E that makes this song my favorite.
Tell us something about yourself that would surprise people. I’m a semi professional building contractor. Okay, I’ve never been paid, but I can tile your house and my house and hang drywall all over the world with the best of them.  I’m not afraid to use a drill!
