Atrium Theater Group's King Lear With Me as Goneril

The Atrium Theater Group under artistic director Don Baldaramos and producer Melanee Nelson (pictured at the left) are gearing up for an October 4th stage reading of Shakespeare's King Lear, in which I will be playing eldest daughter Goneril.

This will be our second stage reading -- the first one was only of the first two acts, this will be of the entire play. I'm excited, but there's a lot of hard work to be done before that.

On Sunday, we went through all the actor headshots from the auditions held by the former director of this stage reading, who had to drop out of the production for family reasons. Don Baldaramos will be assuming those directing duties as well as playing lead character, King Lear. Melanee will be playing middle sister Regan.

Afterwards, Melanee and I emailed the actors we were interested in to tell them the good news.

We do not have a venue for this Sunday evening performance nailed down yet, but if you want to come see the stage reading, you are invited and welcome.
