After a very successful run of My Name Is Asher Lev (adapted by Aaron Posner from the novel by Chaim Potok) at the Delaware Theatre Company, Lise is now traveling with the show to Round House Theatre. It runs in from March 17th through April 11th. After this run she will return to Theater J for Hadar Galron's Mikveh, directed by Shirley Serotsky.
Lise has been very
busy over the past year. She played to rave reviews at Arena
Stage in the world premiere of Legacy
of Light, appeared in Ion at the Shakespeare
Theatre Company, directed Pinky Swear's production of Freakshow,
(Capital Fringe Festival), took over the role of Arkadina in The
Seagull on 16th Street (Theatre J) and Goneril in King Lear
(Shakespeare Theatre Company). She then directed the Taffety Punk's
Bootleg Troilus and Cressida, immedieately followed by
Taffety Punk's all
girl Measure for Measure (you can read an interview with Lise
about the show here).
She topped off 2009 with a successful run of Lost in Yonkers at Theater
J in Washington, DC and then workshopped on new material with Shotgun Players in Berkeley,
California for the end of December.
