Kathleen Piersons believes that every day is an adventure, and she makes sure that it is! She loves life and lives it to the fullest extent with many varied activities. Just a few (really!). Examples are: acting onstage, traveling (currently at 74 countries), kayaking and anything around water, hiking/walking and just being out in nature, arts and crafts, dancing, reading and listening to audio books (favs are mysteries), and doing the unexpected. Some of her friends refer to her as brave, but she is just being Kathleen! She has swum with dolphins, slapped hands with seals, snorkeled up close and personal with sharks and stingrays, buddied up to alligators, and seen the Big 5 on safari in Africa. She loves ziplining, and she bungi jumped over the fountain in Fountain Hills and piloted a glider twice. In 2024, she’s planning on swimming the Devil’s Pool at the edge of Victoria Falls, one of the seven wonders of the world. (Zambia, Africa). Then, what’s she doing here? It’s one of her loves! The camaraderie with castmates, the team effort to help each other make it the best production that it can be, are irreplaceable. If you’ve experienced theatre at all, you know it’s FAMILY! Thanks to all . . .

LAUREN VOORHEES: When she isn't a cannibal, she enjoys walking over rocks, climbing over rocks, spending money in sedona on rocks, and rocking the mic at karaoke night.

She is graduating with her degree in Computer Systems Engineering this semester. She is also looking for a job so you should hire her. Puppies make her happy. The end.

Spencer Beckwith is excited to be part of a show this gnarly! Playing so many different characters comes strangely naturally to him... Surely that's just a coincidence, right? Anyway, enjoy the performance, because he finally learned a little bit about cooking for this show. And maybe you'll learn something, too!
