Lisa's love for singing and dancing stems back to growing up with a musical family. Her grandmother and great aunt performed with some of the "greats" in the early days of the Grand Ole Opry. Lisa's mom sang and danced on live radio shows in the 40's and her dad played piano and harmonica. Not to mention, his big beautiful voice! At the age of 16, Lisa began performing professionally with an Arizona dance company. This eventually led Lisa to devoting much of her time to acting/singing/dancing in community and professional plays and musicals, mostly in the Phoenix area from 1980 - 2004.
Lisa
has graced the stages of Phoenix Theater, Gammage, Sundome, Symphony Hall, The
Herberger Theater, Fountain Hills Theater, and Copperstate Dinner Theater.
She has performed lead and supporting roles in shows such as:
Nunsense, Noises
Off, The Odd Couple, Evita, West Side Story, Hair, Annie, Bye Bye Birdie,
Carousel, My Fair Lady (to name only a few!).
Her roles in Anything Goes and Noises Off (of recent) got her nominations for Best Actress at the
AriZony awards. Lisa
feels fortunate to have been able to share the stage with such great theatrical
talents as Buddy Ebsen, Theodore Bikel, John Cullum, and JoAnne Worley.
Listening to her sister's records and transistor radios made a
true impression on Lisa.
The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Stevie Wonder, (there are too
many to mention) all made Lisa quite the music lover.
With her passion for performance and love of music, Lisa has a great time
performing with the "boys" in SuperVibe!
