Outside of theater, he is an IT leader for a national non-profit organization and a member of Mosaic, a Christian praise band here at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church. Bill would like to thank his family for making room in an otherwise busy home life for him to pursue his theatrical endeavors.

Brittany is a senior at Patapsco High School and Center for the Arts and this is her first time directing a show.

She is currently playing Berrymore in "The Hounds of the Baskerville."

Donna is proud to be Stage Manager for her second time at ASoB, as she had a fantastic time as Stage Manager for "Charlie Brown" this summer. In addition to her behind-the-scenes work, Donna has had a great time onstage as well, appearing in "Scrooge" (Char-Woman and Knitter), "Oklahoma!" (Aunt Eller), and "Much Ado About Nothing" (Ursula). Now where did I leave that gaffer tape again? Why is my drill never charged?

He taught violin at Baltimore Talent Education Center until its closing in 2015 and is teaching students at his home and through music companies.
