The show too hot for Beverly! There was a fire at the theatre after the Opening. It forced 2 shows to play in Boston.	I won my first IRNE Award for this role. It was also my Boston debut.
For the Dallas Theater Center: I stopped every performance with my song, "Cecily Smith"!	This was my debut for Oklahoma's City Rep Theatre. This production celebrated the 75th anniversary of the novel.
I first played Scrooge at NSMT in 1992. I'm still doing it!	I joined the Trinity Shakespeare Festival for it's inaugural season in 2009 and have continued to return every year!
