Quality Cast

Sarah Nolte (Stage Manager) was born into a theatre family; her big start as a kid was playing “the body” in It Was a Dark and Stormy Night by Tim Kelly. She continued to play bodies until she unfortunately sneezed during a performance while trussed up in a funny sack. Little did she know, that sneeze would inadvertently launch her career in theatre! Sarah directed The Maltese Bodkin and No Sex Please, We’re British, and Stage Managed The Game’s Afoot and Marat/Sade for Twilight Theatre and played Marmie in Little Women. She’ll always be thankful to her family for recommending she play that dead body and she’ll always be thankful to Sam for his love and support.

Judy Straalsund (Dr. Brandon) loves the theatre and has played many roles, both onstage and backstage. As the Founding Artistic Director of Tapestry Theatre, she was a producer, director, actor, playwright, and marketer, and directed and acted with other companies. She’s also led workshops in Kenya and Egypt, worked with focus groups for Intel, directed the program elements of Wild Canyon Games, and co-wrote program sketches for companies ranging from the Hughes Space and Communication Group to the Portable Sanitation Association. She’s currently using her theatre background in the corporate world by coaching writing, public speaking, and communication skills.
