Meet Shayna!

I've fallen a little behind on my introductions this weekend. Oops! I've been battling a horrible cold and terrified that I won't have a voice for the performances or that I'll infect the entire cast on Wednesday night. Today, however, things are looking up! And now, let's get back on track introducing you to rest of the cast. There's still several people I know you're looking forward to meeting.


So without further ado, I'm pleased to introduce you to Shayna! She is brand new to ADK Shakes this year and it is such a pleasure to have her on board for The Justice Project. Shayna is one of those people who just exudes beautiful, positive energy. We met up to run some lines and talk about the rehearsal process and characters the other day. What a lovely chat (and coffee) we had! Shayna is observant and intelligent, open to discussion and willing to take chances. She is going to be an Isabella to reckon with, I can tell.


Do not miss this performance! Catch Isabella on Friday nights this week and next (and the 2nd Gentleman as well). How many Isabellas have you seen doubling in another role? Shayna is all over this. She is also tackling three roles in Merchant. Click here to reserve your tickets now!
