BIO

Melissa is a performer and an all-around musical theatre junkie based in the San Francisco Bay Area. A few of her favorite roles include Fanny Brice in Funny Girl at Throckmorton Theatre, Ariel in The Little Mermaid at Sol Treasures, Katherine Plumber in Newsies at Hillbarn Theatre, Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors at Pacific Coast Repertory Theatre, and Penny Lou Pingleton in Hairspray at Bay Area Musicals, Stage 1/Ohlone Summerfest, and Pacific Coast Repertory Theatre (…so far 😉). She was also honored to appear alongside Tony Award winners Bill Irwin and Harriet Harris as Kim in Showboat at San Francisco Opera.



A few years ago, Melissa was diagnosed with Stage IV Hodgkin's Lymphoma. After a hard-fought battle, she is now cancer free and passionate about helping others understand the unique challenges that arise from battling cancer in your twenties. Spoiler alert…the movie 50/50 pretty much nailed it.

When not on stage, Melissa teaches fitness, builds websites for other Bay Area creatives, and works in theatre marketing. She is excited to continue to celebrate & support the Bay Area theatre community onstage and off for many years to come.

BWW Review: HAIRSPRAY at Bay Area Musicals Provides the Perfect Tonic for Our Times

Is the state of the world making you more than a little crazy these days? The president's latest racist rants gotcha down? Well, Bay Area Musicals' production of "Hairspray" just might be the perfect remedy to lift you out of your despair and make you believe in our collective power to triumph over all the nastiness out there. The show pulls off the neat trick of delivering an upbeat, larger than life entertainment while also conveying a powerful message about the need for us all to band together if we're going to extinguish racism, and a host of other isms along the way. Lessons from the civil rights movement are presented without the show ever feeling didactic or preachy.
