Dani is thrilled to be making her debut with WHACTo. Dani is a native Brit and loves to go back to her British roots and take part in Murder Mysteries, Period Dramas and British Farce (mainly because her American accent is an embarrassment!). She has spent time on a stage since 9 years of age. Some of her favorite roles have included Molly (The Mousetrap), Ruth (Blithe Spirit), Lotty (Enchanted April), Joanna Markham (Move over Mrs Markham) and Gertrude Chiltern (An Ideal Husband). Thanks to the cast and crew for the warm welcome and to her husband and two boys for accommodating her theater passion.

Francesca is delighted to be back on stage playing Miss Emily Brent. The role was a challenge. She had to learn how to knit - and also had to learn how to be condescending and self righteous. This was very difficult, but she got there in the end. Francesca has enjoyed working with the talented director, cast and crew to put together this classic story. Some other roles Francesca has tackled include Dotty Ottley in “Noises Off”, “Truvy” in “Steel Magnolias”, Ruth in “Pirates of Penzance”, and most recently, Emilia in “Othello “. Other favorite roles include Rye and Pumpernickel.
