Viola

​

​Juliette Jones (Viola) is delighted to take-on her first outdoor Shakespeare experience! She has been seen locally with Taproot Theatre, Centerstage Theatre, Kitsap Forest Theatre, ACT Theatre, and more. She was most recently seen leading the cast of Love Letters, a new musical developed by non-speaking autistic writers in collaboration with Theatre of Possibility. Other favorite roles include Hester (A Woman of No Importance), Beth (Little Women), and Martha (Spring Awakening). Many thanks to the cast and crew who made this show possible!

Maria, Fabian, Officer

​

Olivia Finkelstein (she/her) is excited to be performing in such a beautiful environment this summer. This is her first production with Emerald Theatre, but, fun fact, it is her second time playing Fabian in “Twelfth Night”! Other recent roles include Rachael in “Appropriate” (Illinois Wesleyan) and Josie Pye in “Bend in the Road” (Kitsap Forest Theatre). In the fall, Olivia will be returning to Illinois Wesleyan University for her senior year, pursuing a BFA in Acting and a minor in Film Studies. She hopes that this story about the human instinct to love, despite misunderstanding, will touch you in a meaningful way.

Sir Toby

​

​Brittany is so excited to be debuting on Emerald’s stage as a member of the Twelfth Night cast. A newcomer to the Greater Seattle Theatre Scene but you may have seen her as Jo in BOOM , as Wall in The Hatmaker’s Wife, or as Christmas Past/Present/Future in Scrooge: A Musical. She is eternally grateful to her support system of friends and family that continue to believe and support my lovely little dress up game as a passionate career. Much love. Enjoy the show!

Sir Andrew, Feste (the Fool)

​

Alan is thrilled to be a part of Twelfth Night. He has previously appeared in Murder on the Orient Express and A Chorus Line at Tacoma Little Theatre, Mamma Mia! and Rocky Horror at Auburn Avenue Theater and most recently at Tacoma Musical Playhouse in Escape to Margaritaville.
