Many thanks to Kristi Scott for the leeway to do some outrageous things, to Sara Jelley for her trust in me vocally, Tina Kailiponi for her ability to make things clear in a succinct manner (and herd cats like the best of them), and an amazing cast and crew who made this all possible!

Elisha Cullins

Elisha Cullins - is so thrilled to be returning to the Iao Theater stage in this large ensemble show in what’s seemed like years! But this time, embodying the darkest, dankest, stinkiest, slankiest character he could find. Elisha was actually asked to leave the theater multiple times throughout the rehearsal process due to his foul mood, appearance, behavior, and hygiene. For people who know Elisha outside of the theater, it’ll be just like watching him in his normal day-to-day life. TTFN.
