03/29/2012: Won't You Be My Neighbor?
I am the host of WGBH's new series Neighborhood Kitchens!! We just finished shooting the first episode yesterday. In each episode we'll be visiting a different New England restaurant's kitchen, where chefs will be showing us how to make recipes from different countries of Latin America. Our first stop was Casa Romero, where the delightful chef Don Leo shared some delicious and simple Mexican recipes. See? Doesn't he look delightful?
Thanks to our lovely producer Patricia for the photographs. I had a great time yesterday and learned some valuable tips in the kitchen, such as how not to burn my apartment down while making platanos flambe. I am so excited to be on this culinary television adventure!
02/21/2012: Time of My Life

01/06/2012: Well Behaved... Trailer
12/07/2011: Holiday Time in Boston
I can't believe it has been a month since Well Behaved Women... performed at The Roots! I had a great time and can not wait to present it again. In the meantime, I had the pleasure of participating in a staged reading of Lawrence Goodman's The Disappearance of the Jews with the Huntington Theatre Company two weeks ago. That same week I was cast in Zeitgeist Stage Company's Boston production of Alan Ayckbourn's Time of My Life, which begins rehearsals tomorrow night!
10/25/2011: Solo Show!
10/08/2011: Fall is in Full Swing
A Class Act closed on Sunday with a great reception by sold-out audiences. It was a gem of a show with a wonderful and talented cast, director, and creative team. This week I shot on location at the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA for a film for the Longyear Museum. In September, I had the privilege of participating in Kevin Broccoli's Dark Night series at 2nd Story Theatre. I performed a lovely monologue written by Mr. Broccoli. Next up is my solo show at The Roots in downtown Providence on Tuesday, November 8. It's going to be a great cabaret of original work!
