 Who's Who 

  • Arianna Gordon

    as Tracy Lord

    Arianna Gordon, 26, is thrilled to be playing the role of Tracy. This is Arianna’s third show with SRP, previously performing as ensemble in Spamalot and the Totally 80's Cabaret. She has also participated in other local theater over the past year, such as Lakewood Theater in Madison and SideStage Theater right in Farmington. Arianna would like to dedicate this performance to Gracie Libby & Brendan Hickey for welcoming her into SRP with open arms and making it so very easy to fall back in love with theatre again. 

  • Rowan Shanti

    as Dinah Lord

    Rowan Shanti is a senior at Mt. Blue High School and is thrilled to take part in this production. Her love of theater began at a young age, where she made her acting debut in a production of Beauty and the Beast at the age of four. Since then, she has appeared in several performances, the majority of which have been put on by the Mt. Blue Theater Company. Her favorites include Alice in Alice in Wonderland and Madge Geisel in The Game's Afoot. Outside of theater, she enjoys writing music, playing guitar, and dancing. When she graduates, she hopes to pursue a degree in Political Science and become a journalist. Enjoy the show! 

  • Melody Bickford

    as Margaret Lord

    Melody has been performing with SRP since 2010. You may have seen her in such roles as Gay Wellington in You Can’t Take it With You, The Witch in Into the Woods, The Ghost of Christmas Past in A Christmas Carol, Edward Rutledge in 1776, and the Baroness in The Sound of Music. When she isn’t doing theater Melody also teaches English at Mt. Blue High School, sings in her local band Invite the Wild, and enjoys snuggling her two cats, Banquo and Viola. She has thoroughly enjoyed her time exploring the role of Margaret Lord, and playing mother to her three wonderful stage children.
