Mandy Logsdon

Mandy was born in Detroit and raised in Clinton Township where she, again, currently resides.  Her love of stories is completely credited to her mother, Beth, who allowed her to stay up a half hour later each night - if she was in bed, teeth brushed, and reading.  Mandy's itch to perform came in high school.  Unfortunately, the theatre gods had other things in mind and she was not cast in her freshman year production of My Fair Lady.  Because of that she did not audition for another play for 16 years, falsely believing she could not act.  Whilst denying her true calling she tried many things: music, retail management, pharmacology, cosmetology, peer advocating, wild rioting, and debauchery just to name a few.  Finally finding herself in a more serene mindset she realized it was time to work towards her dream of being an actor.  At 30 Mandy performed in a play for the first time.  A quaint little comedy at a professional theatre in downtown Mt. Clemens, formerly known as The Box.  Don Calamia was in attendance on her opening night, he said she was green.
 
Since then Mandy has performed at many professional theatres throughout the Metro-Detroit Region, including The AKT Theatre Project, Puzzle Piece Theatre & Open Book Theatre Company to name a few. Currently she is a company member at Slipstream Theatre Initiative in Ferndale, MI. Mandy also originated the role of Tiffany Quinn in the web series "So Long...Until Tomorrow", A Brief Production.
