When I was at my worst. My lowest and most painful moment, they came for me. My friends. My Women. My supporters. My team. Some I hadn't seen in over 20 years. They did not care how late at night it was if I needed to talk. Didn't care how long it took me to be able to meet in person. They didn't care about anything except that I KNEW that they were now, have always been, and will always be there for me. So a special shout out to the crew from Citi circa early 2K! Yal know who you are! Thank you for holding me down and lifting me up💜 by @cecilylyn

It was a joy and an honor to work on the telling of this story. It was also incredibly stressful playing a former warden of a concentration camp. But Building the Wall by Robert Schenkken allowed us to explore the humanity behind those we might dismiss as monsters. To try to understand how everyday people with good intentions can become part of a system designed to oppress, imprison, and ultimately kill their neighbors.

Just a privledge to be directed by the legendary @brentbuellnyc and to work along side the talented @cecilylyn. Hats off to our production team AD @becca_conaway SM @m.a.g.a.t.h.a Lighting and assistant SM @e.kruskal Producer @jessiefahay @danthony_photography @pavancarterphotography @urbanstages and the non-for-profit production company @rippleeffectart

Thank you to all the great organizations that spoke at the talk backs.. @thenyic @immdefense etc. (please donate to them if you can)

And to the playwright @rschenkkan himself for joining us for a performance and talkback. Just wonderful hearing his thoughts.

And thank you to the audiences who came out night after night, some traveling very far to be here, to hear a story designed to raise our awareness of the wrongs being committed everyday across the world and how we might fight back by building not walls, but community. Bravo to you!

Finally thank you for all the support from those close to me outside the theater. For being there for me. Your love and support means more to me than I could ever hope to show. Thank you

Let’s keep telling stories that inspire
our shared humanity. taken in Urban Stages by @cecilylyn
