As in on-screen romance, not E = mc2 ...
Gotta love being on set after a short turnaround! With 12 hours notice, I had a blast stepping in for an actress on the set of "Chemistry Test," an upcoming comedic short film from James Fagan (Comedy Central, and a fellow BC alum!). Watch my "day in the life" video of this experience on TikTok.

CENTRAL SQUARE THEATER'S VIRTUAL WOMEN & SCIENCE THEATER FESTIVAL
_________________________________________________________________________________________
I was absolutely thrilled to be back in the rehearsal room (on Zoom!) as part of CST's virtual Women & Science Theater Festival. I played several female characters - from a dutiful Victorian Irish sister to the revolutionary physician Alice Hamilton and even a robot - in the "In the Play Lab: Original Ten-Minute Plays" event!

In February 2020, I was cast in my first New York City production. I was ecstatic to begin rehearsals playing Kat, a blue-haired goth teenager with a lot of mommy issues. However, due to COVID-19, the production was unfortunately cancelled. In an exciting update, the play was added to the Kilroys List 2020. Check out the Killing Mom production website here...
LITTLE WOMEN

"Dances bubble up and disappear in the movie, leaving behind glowing fragments of sensation."
Christmas magic? Galloping around a New England colonial ballroom with my childhood idol, Emma Watson, to contemporary music such as David Bowie and Pixies? Petticoats & 27 button jackets & my first time on a feature film set? Yeah, it was pure magic.
Look for my bobbing blonde head in the Gardiner Ball Scene (aka 'The Porch Dance' when Laurie and Jo meet) in Greta Gerwig's Oscar-nominated film. You can spot me briefly in this clip…

A new play by Rosie McInnes centering on themes of girlhood, societal pressures of growing up, and the pain of losing your imaginary best friend, Snowgirl was my first choreography project for which I devised movement for a work-in-development. On November 11th, 2019 Snowgirl had its first workshop production and world premiere as part of the Nora Theatre’s “That’s What She Said” series.
