 Marcus is celebrating his 6th show with ActOut.  Prior credits include The Laramie Project, Last Sunday in June, Southern Baptist Sissies, Letters from Mother, and Lot's Daughters.  He's also been an active player with the Actors Guild of Lexington, The Studio Players, West T. Hill Community Theater, and Balagula to name a few. He is excited about this show and about ActOut's reemergence on the Central Kentucky theater scene.  

 Kim is very happy to be working with ActOut. She was most recently seen in The Giver at Lexington Children's Theatre. She is an actor and professional voiceover artist with clients including Lexmark, UK Healthcare, and the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Salon and Spa in Washington DC. 

Tommy is pleased to work once more with ActOut. The last time was a decade ago when he designed sound for Bo List’s direction of Corpus Christi.  To return as a performer is a great privilege and has been a lot of fun. 

Deborah is an associate professor of theatre and film at Berea College.  While she has spent most of the last fifteen years directing (Medea, The Rocky Horror Show, Jesus Christ Superstar), she is dedicating her upcoming sabbatical to performing.  In addition to teaching acting and directing, she also teaches Queer Theatre and Gender Performance.  Lexington audiences may remember Deborah as part of the acting duo in The Kathy and Mo Show for Actors Guild of Lexington with Debra Hensley. Deborah is delighted to be a part of this important production and to play with an incredible performance and production team. 

Rick has been performing over 50 years.  His most recent shows include Arsenic and Old Lace, Harvey and the Secret Garden at Woodford Theatre.  Among his favorite roles are Brian in The Shadow Box, the title role in George M! and Charles Guiteau in Assassins.   This is Rick's first show back from a break where he KICKED CANCER'S BUTT!                

He is delighted to be working with this wonderful group of actors, a great director and his wife, stage manager Marty Wayman.

 Burley Thomas is an Aqueerius!  He is super excited about being a part of the ActOut reading for Standing  On Ceremony. Burley has recently been seen as Jim, Tom, and Kenneth in Studio players' Clybourne Park.  He was first seen with ActOut as Paul in

 Sherry has been on the Lexington theatre scene for over 25 years. Recent projects include portraying Chelsea in On Golden Pond and Annie in Calendar Girls at Woodford Theatre, directing Harold and Maude for Balagula and costuming shows as varied as The Addams Family and Of Mice and Men.   This is her first production for ActOut.  Enjoy the show! 

 Marty has worked with most regional theatre companies over the last 30+ years as a director, stage manager, house manager, and actor.  She is proud of the many fundraisers that she was a part of back in the early AVOL days, including directing a segment of Harvey Fierstein's SAFE SEX (On Tidy Endings) and numerous shows and bingo games in habit!  Speaking of which, this winter Marty will be directing NUNSENSE at Woodford Theatre.  She lives in Frankfort with her husband, actor Rick Wayman, and two sons.
