American Son (Scott Connor) | You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown 2024 (Schroeder) | Picasso at the Lapin Agile 2024 [Einstein] | Exit Interview 2023 [Dick Fig] | The Fantasticks 2022 [Henry]

Tommy is excited to be once again lending his creative talents on stage for this production as his presence is felt most often on the production team off the stage in every previous Masquerade production. Seen last on this stage last year as Schroeder in You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.  Tommy has performed throughout the area for over 15 years in such roles as Einstein (Picasso at the Lapin Agile), Dick Fig (Exit Interview), Henry (The Fantasticks ), Black Stache (Peter and the Starcatcher), Willy Wonka (Willy Wonka), Ian (High Fidelity), Albert (Bye Bye Birdie), Richard Hannay (The 39 Steps), and Eddie (Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?). Ever grateful for the love and support of his partner in life, Megan, and his kids who graciously put up with their parents’ love of theater.

Carla is thrilled to return to the stage in American Son, playing this February at Masquerade Theatre in Riverside, NJ. A multidisciplinary artist, Carla’s creative life spans theatre, visual art, and writing. She brings a deep sense of empathy, emotional intelligence, and lived experience to her work, qualities that strongly inform her approach to complex, human-centered stories. Her performances are grounded, intuitive, and deeply connected to the inner lives of the characters she portrays. In addition to her work on stage, Carla is an accomplished author and visual artist whose work is represented by The Hunter Gallery in Merchantville, NJ, and a professional real estate advisor known for integrity, clarity, and relationship-driven success. Across all disciplines, her work centers on truth-telling, connection, and transformation. Carla is honored to be part of American Son, a powerful and timely work, and is grateful to Connor Twigg and the Masquerade Theatre family for the opportunity to return to the theatrical community.

As far back as Richard can remember, he always wanted to be an entertainer. With accomplishments in stage, film, and voice overs, he has also blended them with mental health advocacy through blogs, public speaking events, and a web series. With American Son marking his first theater performance since 2020, Richard continues to remind others that their version of themselves will always be more important than others who dare to take their shine.

William is honored to be telling this story with Masquerade Theatre. He has been a fan of the piece since it’s Broadway premiere, and he is so thankful to Connor and the team for brining him on board. When not pursuing his craft onstage, Will can be found working at Adventure Aquarium in Camden or balancing gig work as a theater educator in South Jersey. He has directed over 10 shows in his 4 years teaching including regional premieres of Finding Nemo, Jr. and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. His other educational work includes stage managing, sound design, and being a teaching artist with DiAE (Delaware Institute for Arts in Education) and DWT (Delaware Wolf Trap).  Wiil sends much love and appreciation to all of his friends and family for believing in him and supporting this 28 year-old juggling so many different aspects of life. Finally, he would like to thank his partner, Mj, the green light across the bay. He hopes all you blockheads enjoy the show! Favorite recent credits include: Beethoven (Dog Sees God), Nikko (Wizard of Oz), Deputy (Edwin Drood), Beleaguered Geek (Heathers), & Bud/Clyde Barrow u/s (Bonnie and Clyde).
