I don't know a preposition from a predicate - I am just a simple cobbler from Connecticut.

And now I confidently know how to spell 'Connecticut'.

Mostly. 🪶

Roger Sherman and understudying John Adams kept me quite busy when I wasn't learning more pentameter or crawling on the floor for Hamlet, but it was a BLAST to do my first professional musical.

What a show. What a time to do the show. What a group of people to be doing the show with at this time. 1776 gets a bad rap sometimes, but at the end of the day, it's a bunch of really imperfect people trying so hard to do the thing they think is the most right thing they can do in the moment they're in - and that's my favorite kind of play. And I loved it. 

Mostly. 🦯 (it was just the cane stamping that got old, I swear. The rest I loved 🤪)

And Julianne came out for the SOLE PURPOSE of seeing ME! No other reason. She's the best.

My darling Alice and I, reunited! I adore you. Working with you again has been the best gift.

RAWR. I am not yet so little but that my NAILS could reach unto your EYESSSS.

My LOVERS!!! You are the best. Thank you for the lovely memories an the hours of meticulous fight choreography fun. Someone should hire us to play the Lovers again tbh

Harriet Smith in EMMA at Texas Shakespeare Festival 🍰

Letters were read. Parties were attended. Couples were married. Treats were eaten. Thankful for the opportunity to play this kind, genuine, energetic, open-hearted and open-minded “natural daughter of somebody.” Thank you to the whole team for making this show happen!
