What a year! Danae did some soul-searching and artistic pivoting after losing 4 jobs due to COVID-19. But, somehow, she survived. Here's a quick recap of some recent work.
JANUARY 2020 - MARCH 2020 Danae was an Associate Artist with at Lexington Children's Theatre with their 2020 Spring Tour! In addition to her role of Mary Catherine in Long Road to Freedom, she appeared in the World Premiere of The Princess and the Peas, where she originated the roles of Queen, Princess Eliza, Princess Leascelyn, and the Highwayman. This contract was cut short due to COVID-19. JUNE 2020 - AUGUST 2020 Danae went (safely) back on-stage at Cornwell's Dinner Theatre in Marshall, MI, in Honky Tonk Angels as Sue Ellen. She sang lots of old country favorites, including "9 to 5," "These Boots are Made For Walkin'," "Cornell Crawford," "Rocky Top," and "Cleopatra: Queen of Denial." This contract was cut short due to COVID-19. SEPTEMBER 2020 - MAY 2021 Danae enjoyed an administrative stint with New York City's TADA! Youth Theater as their Marketing Manager. TADA! is a unique Drama Desk award-winning nonprofit youth theater that produces original musicals for children, teens, and family audiences. While working remotely for TADA!, she lived in Pigeon Forge, TN, and made people laugh at the Great Smoky Mountain Murder Mystery Dinner Show in 3 different comedies: Moonshine Murders as Lily Luke, Who Shot the Sheriff? as Miss Kitty, and Marriage Can Be Murder as The Bride. Then, she moved back to Southwest Florida in the summer of 2021. Read the full FLO-RIDA update here!
