    as The Baker's Wife

    As you might expect from a “Baker's Wife,” Kara appreciates good bread, and is always in search of a new focaccia recipe. She is a writer and reader as well as an actress, and loves a good story in any form. Some of Kara's favorite past roles include “Rita LaPorta” in Lucky Stiff and “Cecily Cardew” in The Importance of Being Earnest. She currently serves as the secretary of the Santa Cruz Shoestring Players Board of Directors, and would like to thank you for your support of our local community theater group. Her wish would be to live in the moment. Enjoy the show!
