Miranda is originally from one of the Dakotas (guess which one and you get a prize). She had recently took a whole two show sabbatical from The Schmee to travel the world and bring back new innovative Stage Management techniques and a thoughtful new eye into the fringe theater scene. She almost made it out of Seattle doing so. Between a wonderful Run of Electra (Dir. Sheila Daniels) with Seattle Shakes learning new uses of stage blood, and new practical cleaning methods for the aforementioned gore effect, to Balagan’s Jammer (Dir. Terri Weagant) where she learned to make Art or Die!
