To my village, my friends, and my fellow storytellers...

I am beyond thrilled to share some incredible news!

My one-woman show, STAGE MAMMA: From Child Star to Leading Lady, has been accepted to the world’s largest solo theatre festival: United Solo on 42nd Street, Off-Broadway! I have been invited for both the Spring and Fall 2026 sessions at Theatre Row.

Additionally, the show has been accepted to the Fallout Fringe Festival in Las Vegas this June!

We have already worked so hard to get the show to this point. Since premiering at the Hollywood Fringe Festival in 2025, it's been an Official Selection of the Fort Worth Fringe, Binge Fringe at the Santa Monica Playhouse, won an Encore! & Zephyr Zest Award in the Soaring Solo Stars Series, and received two regional BroadwayWorld Award nominations: Best Solo Production & Best Cabaret/Concert/Solo Performance.

STAGE MAMMA: Reclaiming the Narrative

STAGE MAMMA follows my journey from a small Texas town to the high-stakes world of LA, all under the relentless guidance of my mother—the original "Stage Mamma." I inhabit a vivid cast of characters blended with actual home videos from my childhood.

Ultimately, this show is about hope, resilience, autonomy, the cycles we choose to break, and the power of healing through storytelling.

The Proven Path

I feel deeply connected to the tradition of solo theatre. Many of the most iconic stories of our time began as one-person shows; A Bronx Tale (one of Mom's favorites) and My Big Fat Greek Wedding both started exactly where I am now. They proved that when we have the courage to tell our specific, personal truths, we can connect with the entire world.

A Promise Kept

I created this show after losing my mom, Silvia, in 2024. Before she passed, I promised her I would tell our story; she promised her mother the same thing. This show is me keeping those promises. And I have so much more where this comes from.

Why I Need YOU

It will take a village to get this show from LA to NYC, NYC to Vegas, then Vegas to NYC. My goal is $35,000.

If you can spare even a few dollars, THANK YOU! This tour will be the foundation for the art I create for the rest of my life. Please share this campaign with your own 'village'; with anyone who believes that our most personal stories are the ones that connect us the most.
