As this season’s Artistic Fellow, Alexa has been developing her skills as a director and casting associate. She received her B.A. in Performing Arts from the University of Tampa and while she has been an actress for most of her professional career, she is thrilled to be spending more time on the other side of the table. Past directorial credits at American Stage include Cinderella Eats Rice and Beans (Assistant Director). Past acting credits at American Stage include Romeo and Juliet in America (Juliet u/s, perf.), Steel Magnolias (Shelby), and The Polar Bear Society (Moxie). She would like to thank Patrick and Erica for all of their mentorship and encouragement, her family for all of their love and support, and John for his work building this set (love you, mean it) and for pushing her to keep going. Alexa dedicates her work on this production to her Abuela.
