CREATIVE TEAM PhOTOS & BIOGRAPHIES
Monica is thrilled to be performing in DIRTY LITTLE DITTIES with IndieWorks Theatre Company. She graduated from Atlantic Acting School’s Conservatory Program and currently studies at the Kimberly Vaughn Performance Studio. She most recently co-starred in an episode of BLUE BLOODS (the one with Jessie Mueller!). She’s spending her summer turning a year older (shhh), spending time with her dog, and auditioning for fun stuff. Check out monicablume.com for more information!
Alina is delighted for her second performance with the IndieWorks Theater Company after being seen in KIT GOLDSTEIN GRANT & FRIENDS in May. Previous roles include Ursula in THE LITTLE MERMAID, Madame Thenardier in LES MISERABLES, and Trix in THE DROWSY CHAPERONE. She most recently performed in four new musicals at NYPL’s ACROSS A CROWDED ROOM at Lincoln Center. She has loved working in theater for the past 15 years as an actress, costume designer, and makeup artist.
Lauren is currently working on more projects than she can honestly remember. Since January, she has originated roles in two new musicals and a new opera, and will begin rehearsals for a another new musical beginning in August. She runs a private voice studio in NYC. She is a globetrotter and storyteller, and occasionally she gets to bed at a decent hour. Want to know more about this diva? @lagizz_sangs and www.laurengismondi.com should definitely do the trick!
