ABOUT ME!

Hi there! My name is Jo and I am a curious actor, aspiring director, and ardent theatre artist with a particular passion for Shakespeare and classical text. I love utilizing old stories and words in new ways to share fresh stories and perspectives. As a queer artist, I think it is important to break the molds of expectation and tradition in the industry.

 

When not in the theatre, I love to crochet, read, play DND, and explore new places. I made my stage debut at age five in 12 Dancing Princesses, and although I know I will never again play a role as profound as the 11th Princess, I am eager to continue learning about the world through different roles, lenses, and stories!

Current/Upcoming Projects

I am thrilled to be working as the Apprentice Director on Sunny Afternoon at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre! Making its North American premier, this rock-and-roll musical features the story and music of the 4-time Olivier Award-winning band The Kinks. Performances run March 21-April 27, 2025. Tickets can be found at chicagoshakes.com.
