From January 2015 to Present (10 months) South Windsor, CTHole in the Wall Theater @ Played the role of Phyllis Hogan in Fat Men in Skirts: After their plane crashes, Phyllis, and her son, Bishop, are stranded on a desert island for five years. During their stay, Bishop is transformed from a stuttering, Katherine Hepburn-obsessed little boy, into a feral savage who eventually rapes his mother. At home, we see Howard, Phyllis’ husband and a famous movie director, continuing life with his somewhat loopy, ex-porn-star mistress, Pam. Pam moves in with Howard and becomes pregnant, the play only getting stranger from here. The play evolves into a ludicrous but touching love story, and reflection on human nature. Each act is done in an entirely different theatrical style. Absurd, then farce, and then finally a court room drama. Written by Nicky Silver and directed by Scott Stephen Kegler "There is a lot to "playing crazy" and Jenn MacPherson gives us quite an arc to watch. The purposeful absurdity of the text sometimes gets in the way but MacPherson's wonderfully nuanced in the role." Steve Gifford - onstageblog.com From March 2015 to April 2015 (2 months) New Britain, CTInterim Talent Acquisition Manager @ Managed the Talent Acquisition function which includes the Talent Acquisition Specialists: worked with Talent Acquisition Specialists to source and pre-screen resumes, conduct phone interviews, coordinate hiring team feedback, perform in-person interviews, extend and negotiate offers.

From June 2013 to January 2015 (1 year 8 months) South Windsor, CTActor @ Played the role of Darlene Seward in the east coast premier of The Great American Trailer Park Christmas Musical: It’s holiday time down in Armadillo Acres (North Florida’s premier mobile-living community), and everyone’s filled with warmth and beer. But when a freak bout of amnesia strikes the trailer park Scrooge, neighborly love is put to the test. Be on hand as Betty, Lin, and Pickles jingle all the way with some new neighbors in an all-new, all-trailer-park musical! This companion to the original GREAT AMERICAN TRAILER PARK MUSICAL is just as much of a cat-fightin’, sun-worshippin’, chair-throwin’ good time-—but with tinsel and Keg Nog. Book By Betsy Kelso, Music and Lyrics By David Nehls and directed by Lisa Foss From September 2014 to October 2014 (2 months) Norwich, CTActor @ Originated the role of Marta in the world premiere production of Whacked: A full-length comedic play, "Whacked" follows the life of Jack Murphy, whose wife walks in on a private moment and makes an embarrassing discovery the night before Thanksgiving. The next day, all the in-laws come to celebrate and promptly notice something is not quite right in the Murphy’s little love nest, so they decide to play the parental guessing game. The family of course overshoots numerous times causing the pressure to mount and explode into an array of immoral confessions, misguided religious interventions and plenty of excessive holiday drinking. A Thanksgiving farce stuffed full of sex, family, awkwardness and hilariously needless shame. In the end, the message is clear that (of course) everyone is blameless for their own self-gratification— but that doesn’t make it good dinner conversation. Whacked was written and directed by Scott Stephen Kegler, and was published by JAC Publishing & Promotions (August 27, 2014), and is available for purchase on Amazon.com.
