"As a child, she lost something precious at Christmas. Twenty years later, she's about to lose her heart.
Lena Carver works as her physician brother’s medical assistant,
housekeeper, and cook despite her disfigurement from a childhood
accident. Each year, the Christmas holidays come with contradictions -
cherished memories of a mysterious encounter and painful recollections
of a great loss. Lena lives with the belief that she is beyond love’s
reach, until a dark-eyed cowboy arrives broken, bruised, and bent on
changing her mind.
Wil Bergman wakes in a stranger’s home with a busted leg, a bullet-creased scalp, and no horse. Trail-weary, robbed, and penniless, his dreams and plans for a future are suddenly unattainable. Forced to recuperate in the home of a country doctor, he finds himself at the mercy of a surgeon whose sister’s healing touch has power to stitch up his lonely heart and open his eyes to the impossible."

Next up is another full-cast production from The Online Stage. This one is the children's classic Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi. I played two small roles in this one. As always, these are a lot of fun.
"Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi
Translated from the Italian by Carol Della Chiesa

Carlo Collodi's whimsical recasting of the myth of Pygmalion and Galatea was first published in 1883 and has since become an established classic of children's literature.
