About

ABOUT ME!

Hi there! My name is Jo, and I am a Chicago-based 

actor/director 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, and make that an emphasis of my personal practice.

 

When not in the theatre, I love to crochet, read, play DND, cuddle my cats, 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!

What am I up to?

This is a travel-heavy summer for me! While I am off on some fun adventures seeing family and getting some much needed time in nature, I am also working my way through reading "Straight Acting: The Hidden Queer Lives of William Shakespeare" by Will Tosh.

 

Please note that I will be in an area without service and unreachable

Wednesday, June 24th - Wednesday, July 1st.
