About Mary
At my core I am a storyteller and I strive to create stories that help people to feel.
I love to collaborate and have an uncanny ability to see the whole picture. I am a performer, director, choreographer and writer of drama, comedy, musical theatre, film and television, Shakespeare, and anything else I can get my hands on.
I grew up in sunny Orange County, California where I attended The Music Room School of Performing Arts, the El Modena Arts Academy, and I went on to train at The College of Santa Fe where I received my B.F.A in Theatre, with a musical theatre concentration.
After graduation I went on to perform regionally all over California. I was then cast in a beautiful world premiere of a three person autobiographical play. The play was called Sarah Was Mine. The director and I worked together to get the show into the Fresh Fruit Festival at The Cherry Lane. We emotionally willed it all the way to the Cherry Lane Theatre in New York. This marked my New York theatre debut and a move to New York a few weeks after we closed.
(We are currently in pre-production talks to turn Sarah Was Mine into a film.)
NYC has become home to me and my beloved ‘Katrina’ rescued kitty, Betty. For over a decade, I have immersed myself in the New York theatre scene. I have been seen performing in many off-broadway shows. I have found myself, my choreography, my writing and my direction in many new works. I enjoy helping to structure theatre from its beginning stages.
I am the Youth Artist Director of the new Off-Broadway theatre, AMT. https://www.amttheater.org/
I am currently rehearsing for a benefit production of The Last 5 Years.
