Kirstyn is a mom of two, pastor’s wife, and “aspiring” TIK TOK comedian thanks to her supportive husband. Kirstyn enjoys helping with ministry opportunities in her community whether it’s leading Bible studies, helping with women’s retreats and events, or writing blogs for women. Kirstyn has always had a love for acting since performing in school plays, Strauss Youth Academy for the Arts, church, or summer camps. Kirstyn is SO excited to play in her first role on the Strauss main stage!

Megan Jefcoat
as M'Lynn Eatenton
Megan’s greatest roles she’s ever been given is wife to Mitchell, mom to Molly, Magnolia and Mae K. and Mrs. Jefcoat to lots of little Tigers. Megan has been on the Strauss stage in Dearly Departed and as Stella in A Streetcar Named Desire. Being able to play M’Lynn and share the stage with this group of talented, dedicated, funny, loving ladies has been a dream come true. Thank you Emily and Matthew for your leadership and this incredible opportunity. Lots of love to everyone who has shown up and supported me during this show. In the words of M’Lynn Eatenton-you have no idea how wonderful you are!
