Who's Who

Quinesha Richard

as Abby Brewster (W/F)

Last seen as Southern belle Miss Bobby Melrose in Stage Door last year, Quinesha is now taking on a lead role as Abby Brewster. Quinesha loves being on the stage (it is her 6th year in theatre), whether it's dancing or acting. It's her senior year in both, and while she may be sad it's her last show, she's excited to bring to life the character of Aunt Abby. (It's fun playing a murderous old lady!)
Amiya Osborne

as Abby Brewster (Th/S)

Amiya Osborne is a 12th grader at East Ascension High School. This is her fourth year in theatre and her third full-length play. Amiya is excited to be doing this production of Arsenic and Old Lace. Even though this is her last play in high school, she will continue to audition for plays while in college.
Nevon Murphy

as The Reverend Dr. Harper

Nevon originally joined theatre as a way to break free from his social anxiety. Throughout his journey, he fell in love with the stage and has featured in many EA theatre productions including Game of Tiaras, Stage Door, and Rock of Ages: Teen Edition (Drew). He has also worked backstage on many shows including Romeo and Juliet.
Yitzack Escalante

as Teddy Brewster

YItzack Escalante is an 11th grader who has been a part of several shows and performances, including The Wizard of Oz and Check, Please! He worked backstage for last spring's production of Stage Door.
Jayden Griffin

as Officer Brophy

Jayden is an 11th grader who played a lead in 10 Ways of Surviving the End of the World during his freshman year. He loves being energetic and always strives to ensure that no one feels badly. He loves the people he works with and respects each and every one of them. He is grateful that Doc has faith in him and trusts him to be cast in her full-length plays.
