Neal is so excited to be participating in this review at Holy Cross. Past shows include Guys and Dolls (Nathan Detroit), The Addams Family (Gomez Addams), and The Little Mermaid (Chef Louis). He works as a freelance photographer and content creator. He would like to thank his mom, Addie, and his friends for their support and Zach for putting this show together.

Glad to be able to get to do yet another show with the Troops of Miracle Productions in my 21st consecutive play.

Thanks Holy Cross Theater Ministry for some of the best memories of my life.  Here we go again.

This is Zach's 14th show at Holy Cross, beginning with Annie in 2000. When not on stage, he sings with and directs the Holy Cross Celebration Choir. He's so grateful for the unending love and support of his wife Annemarie, and his 2 awesome kids, Nate and Josie, who make countless sacrifices to make these shows happen. 

Jessica grew up in the Holy Cross Theatre Ministry. After many years abroad she now teaches Middle School Literature at Saint John Neumann where she also runs the drama crew. She sings in the 9A.M. choir at Holy Cross, teaches adult ESOL class, and loves to hike and kayak with family. Jessica is so grateful to be sharing this experience with such a talented and loving cast.

Claire caught the musical theater bug in high school, when she made costumes and appeared onstage in Mikado and Pinafore.  She first joined the Holy Cross theater ministry helping Gil Spencer paint sets.  More recently she has performed in Camelot, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Catch Me if You Can (Paula Abnagale), Sound of Music, Honeymoon in Vegas, Footloose, and The Road to Assisi at Holy Cross as well as Oliver! and The King and I at St. Thomas More.  She still enjoys set dressing and costuming.  Claire is also a cantor with the Adoration Choir.  Claire’s daughter Margaret started acting in Holy Cross shows long before her mom.  A few years ago she convinced her husband Keely to join the fun, and he typically creates some sturdy set pieces for each show. 

Shea is so happy to be back at Holy Cross performing again. Past shows include Guys and Dolls (Miss Adelaide), Thoroughly Modern Millie (Millie Dillmount), and Beauty and the Beast (Belle). She currently works at Warner Brothers on the HGTV network. She would like to thank her friends & family, and also the entire cast/crew of the show for making this such a fun experience.  

Addie is excited to be a part of another Holy Cross production. She is currently working towards her acting career while having the background of Advertising and Project Management. Her previous roles included Hunchback of Notre Dame (Esmeralda), Much Ado About Nothing (Hero), and if you went to dinner in Buckhead or Roswell from 2021-2022, Addie most likely played the role of your Valet Attendant at one of those restaurants. Addie would love to thank Neal for surviving our Choreography days together. She thanks everyone for coming to the show. 

Sarah is thrilled to be performing in another Holy Cross Street People show! Some of her favorite roles have been Reno Sweeny in Anything Goes, Golde in Fiddler on the Roof and Mae Peterson in Bye, Bye Birdie all performed at Holy Cross. She has also been blessed to play the roles of Dolly in Hello Dolly and Miss Hannigan in Annie with the St. Thomas More Players. Over the years, she has performed at Onstage Atlanta, Cobb Community Playhouse, and Stage Door Players.  Love always to her supportive husband, who usually plays bass in the orchestra but is helping with the music tracks for this show. 

This is Katrina’s eleventh show at Holy Cross.  Previous shows include Honeymoon in Vegas, The Little Mermaid, Footloose, The Music Man, Beauty and the Beast, and Wizard of Oz.  Her favorite roles to date are White Christmas (Betty Haynes), Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (Christine Colgate), Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Narrator), and Shrek, The Musical (Dragon).  Katrina teaches Middle School Math at IHM and sings with the Holy Cross Crossfire choir.  You can also see her around Holy Cross as Assistant Director of the Summer Youth shows.  She would like to thank her husband Bobby, son Landon, and the rest of her family for being so amazing and supportive. 

Mell has enjoyed performing with HTCM for over  25 years. He's looking forward to showing off in this show!
