Hi, everyone!
This is Part 1 of 6 Jammin’ with Jamie jam sessions for spooky season!
For our first freaky jam session…
Whip out your wands, clean out your cauldrons, crack open your spell books, power up your proton packs, and stock up on salt, because we’re summoning a set of…
Hi, everyone!
We all have a lot on our minds recently. I know I do!
We’re about to head into spooky season, then Thanksgiving, the holiday season, New Year’s, all the things that start during the holiday season but still run for a week after New Year’s… once those jack-o-lanterns pop up, it’s a sprint and a marathon right through mid-January!
So, we need to warm up so we don’t hit a wall! … Literally or figuratively.
Let’s start those vocal warm-ups with a ton of…
UPDATE: We’re jammin’ to this Jammin’ with Jamie jam session Saturday, September 6! Same time, same station (or stream)!

Hi, everyone!
After workshops and staged readings, Refracted Light by Dana Hall is getting its world premiere in Chicago!
See the world premiere of Refracted Light at the Edge Theater Thursdays through Sundays from August 29-September 27! Get tickets here!
Lucy is preparing for Penny to leave for college when she discovers information that casts doubt on whether now is the right time. Before she can address her concerns, an unexpected turn of events occurs—Penny goes missing. With loss, mental health struggles, and a whirlwind of changes, the family finds itself unraveling. The question arises: How can a typical suburban family cope with these challenges without losing their sanity?
Cast (in order of appearance):
Penny Harris: Jamie Lee
Ted Harris: Zach Kunde
Lucy Harris: Jessica Lauren Fisher
Dr. David Daker: Charles Schoenherr
Becky Mazur: Kim Wilson Buck
Director: Natividad Selgado
Produced by Eclectic Full Contact Theatre
Being Penny Harris is such a wonderful gift. As part of this world premiere, we really got to help shape and mold our characters as we watched them grow from our first workshop reading, to our first official rehearsal, to even now, as we prepare to open! Through our workshops and staged readings, Dana told all of us in the cast specifically how we each helped breathe even more life into these characters and were in her head as she further refined the script. I find it so amazing that I get to bring Penny to life for the first time and introduce her to the world.
Come see us in Refracted Light!

Hi, everyone!
The Midwest, especially Chicagoland, is going through the annual transition from winter to summer… which means wildly fluctuating temperatures… and wildly fluctuating weather!

Hi, everyone!
We’ve already had a holiday this month! … No, not the annual April snow in Chicago.
