John Posey

John Posey hails from Florida with a career that began with an Atlanta comedy group. After 30+ years in Los Angeles, he's a veteran of many TV/Film projects including "Boston Legal" and "How To Get Away with Murder." One of his biggest joys is seeing his two sons become successful actors in their own right. John's show, "Father Son & Holy Coach" was started in LA but since toured the country many times over. It's story of a conflicted father/son relationship mirrors John's with his own father. Determined not to have such a distance between himself and his boys, he's acted along side them every chance he gets. He's been able to work with Tyler in both the series "Teen Wolf" and the  recent film "Alone." Jesse is currently starring in "Selena: The Series." John has recently discovered the joy of teaching, and has even made the pivot to teaching acting over Zoom...always tricky. No matter what, John maintains a love of doing solo theater, because he knows that there's no better way to connect to an audience.

 Tanya Thomas

Tanya Thomas started writing her story ten years ago when an acting coach asked to write about her cross-cultural experiences. The process began with a crippling struggle. Eventually, after a myriad of healing experiences, the doors opened for her to continue to write. Growing up as a minority in Singapore, she existed as someone who existed as someone who was always trying to assimilate.  She always felt like she never reached the intended mark. Her move to LA didn’t change her view of herself – not until her writing unfolded. Ms. Thomas hopes the audience will step into their own light, celebrate their own uniqueness and deepen the understanding of what it means to be human.

Sheila Silver

Sheila Silver knew since birth that she was born to act. Her passion for theatre was fueled by performances from a few of the great Broadway actresses Mary Martin, Bernadette Peters and Katherine Hepburn.  She shared her love of theatre teaching and directing. Writing this solo show was the ultimate leap of faith - sharing her own story raising an autistic child. She hopes that the audience will see the challenges that comes with the world of special needs. With those challenges she met amazing people always supporting her. She was never alone. She embraces these few simple words by Henry David Thoreau. “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams – live the life you’ve imagined.”

Heather Dowling

Heather got bit by the acting bug in high school when she got to play "Dorothy" in The Wizard of Oz. In creating Fertile, her one woman show, she got to tap into a personal story she found was shared by countless other women. For Heather, solo performance in particular is a challenging and vulnerable art form with a unique power to communicate stories. The impact on the audience in itself can be a very personal experience, even with a fictional story! Since Fertile is based on a real story though, Heather has had amazing and countless interactions with women and couples having the same fertility issues, and there's nothing that can mimic that intimate connection with the audience. One of Heather's most fun theatrical experiences was playing "Mrs. White" in a stage version of Clue, but the move into solo performance has given her a whole other artistic satisfaction.
