Misery Cast

Pat is happy to return to the Starlight stage after a multiyear absence. She is especially excited to share the stage with Dan and Eric, two actors she admires and has had the pleasure to share the stage with before. While Pat's parents affectionately called her "Annie" based on her performance in a different play, she doubts (or at least hopes) that no one will refer to her by that name after viewing this production. She credits Bob for taming her type A personality into one that's "slow & low.” She hopes you only experience an "Annie Wilkes" type character as an audience member. Pat thanks you for your support of live theater and she sends her love to her husband, Dan, who truly is her number 1 fan (and she means that in a good way!).

Dan has performed in productions across Arizona, Kansas, Pennsylvania and Maryland and he can honestly say that he has never had a better scene partner than Pat Drapac! Dan is a long time Stephen King fan and is very excited to share Misery with the Starlight community. His past acting credits include Murder's in the Heir and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at Starlight and Young Frankenstein and Barefoot in the Park at DST.  Next up, Dan will direct Young Frankenstein at Starlight. Many thanks to Bob, Phyl, Eric, Bill and Pat for your part in bringing Misery to the Starlight stage. Special thanks to his wife Renee and his adult children Nathan and Quinlyn for their love and support. Thank you for supporting live theater in Arizona!

Eric is ecstatic to be making his debut with Starlight Community Theater. He has been acting on various stages within the valley for the past decade. On top of that, Eric is a narrator for audio books and a podcaster with "Fork In Time". He loves working with this cast and crew and can't wait to do so again. Eric is thankful to his family for their love and support. Die Horet Liebe Nimmer Auf.
