Becki Jones
as Lady Bracknell; Miss Prism U/S
was blessed to spend the academic year 1999-2000 working in the research department at Shakespeare’s Globe, London, UK, seeing countless performances during both seasons and learning much of what goes on behind the scenes. As a result of her experiences at the Globe, and as part of her Master of Fine Arts in Theatre Pedagogy from Virginia Commonwealth University, she developed a “playshop” called Instant Shakespeare, which she has taken to middle school, high school, college, and community groups in the Richmond area and beyond for over 20 years. She has also served as Master of Verse/Dialogue Coach/Choreographer for a number of Richmond Shakespeare productions, including Hamlet, The Merchant of Venice, The Comedy of Errors, and Romeo and Juliet.

Erin Chaves
as Cecily; Gwendolen U/S
could not be more excited to be back at Richmond Shakespeare after appearing as Hermia in last summer's A Midsummer Night's Dream! Other recent credits include Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed: The Rock Experience (Virginia Repertory Theatre), James and the Giant Peach (Riverside CPA), Polkadots: the Cool Kids Musical (Playhouse on Park) and The Hello Girls (Brownville Village Theatre). When not onstage, she can be found reading, solving brain teasers, or creating magical moments with princess company Magic & Merriment. A huge thank you to her loved ones for their continued support of her artistic endeavors and a special thank you to you, the audience, for supporting live theatre! Enjoy this wonderful show! erinchaves.com
