Latest Masquerade Show: 

Vanya and Sonia and Masha + Spike 2025 [Cassandra]

First Masquerade Show:

Laughter on the 23rd Floor 2025 [Helen]

Bio:

Sarah continues to consider herself new to the local theatre community, since this is only her second show, but the team of people at Masquerade have made her very feel welcome, and she is thrilled to call herself a part of the troupe! She’d like to thank her future brother-in-law, Shawn (Vanya) for directing her in her only other role as Helen in Laughter on the 23rd Floor here at Masquerade, CB for believing in her abilities with a voodoo doll and casting her in this show, and Kristine (Masha) for apparently being excited to work together again – or at least doing a really excellent job acting like it! Gratitude to her two teenagers for being such good kids that she can mostly leave them to raise themselves while she’s at rehearsals. And most of all she’d like to thank her wonderful fiancé, Patrick (without whom she’d never have met Shawn) for putting up with all of this while she’s supposed to be helping to plan a wedding.
