More good GRIMM Feedback!

Here's a link to another great review!

http://thehappiestmedium.com/2012/08/grimm-a-new-musical-two-sisters-one-necklace-fringe-festival-2012/

Here's the short form/section involving myself:

"...she (Olivia Hartle) teams well with Burns and Cucci who both do a remarkable job embracing both the good as well as the evil with one hundred percent commitment - casting off the vestiges of their previous roles as thoroughly as they do their costumes.  They are both devoted and believable as the dark as well as the light sides of humanity, so when the switch happens it is as if you can see their souls jump from one to the other.  For this to happen in a small theatre is a remarkable feat."

Tomorrow is our last performance- hope to see you there!!!

TEMPLE OF THE SOULS Awarded!!

Wonderful news! Temple of the Souls, the musical I was in at the West End Theatre this past December, has won 4 HOLA Awards for Excellence in Theatre including Outstanding Production!

Here's the link with all of the awards listed:

After working on this piece for 3 years, from its original reading back in 2008, to its recording, and to the first production, I couldn't be happier or more excited!

Temple of the Souls was developed and directed by Lorca Peress of MultiStages, written by Anita Velez-Mitchell, with music by Anika Paris, Dean Landon, and Anita Velez Mitchell.

GRIMM's First Review!

Here's a link to our first review!

The bit about me (and my "twin" Gina!):

"Our leading ladies, Theresa Burns and Gina Cucci, the true Catherine and the true Angelica —the billing is kind of difficult with all the body-swapping— do a good job of making their characters distinct and both have nice sets of pipes with which to relay the, at times, clumsy morals."
