Hailing from the halls of the New York Conservatory for Dramatic Arts, classically trained Rebecca is thrilled to be making her Off-Broadway debut at The Heights Players with Lynn Nottage’s 2017 Pulitzer Prize winner. When’s she not onstage she’s pouring her heart into her one woman show in the reservations office of Eleven Madison Park. Thank you to Jacob for this amazing experience.
