When they’re not in the theater, which is a rare occurrence, Izzy likes to do creative photoshoots (@izsteenphotos), watch horror movies, and write silly little stories. They would like to thank every single cast and crew member for all their hard work and dedication, this show has been an absolute labor of love, and they are so proud of everyone involved. If you look, you’ll catch them pinching themself in the back of the theater during the show – they’re so stunned and happy to see this show come to life :) Thank you for coming and enjoy the show!

Jenny could not be more thrilled to finally be showing Postmortem to the world, and she couldn’t be more excited to do it as both Louise and a stage manager.

Jenny wants to thank everyone involved with the show and especially wants to thank and give all her love to Andy, Brady, Neev, Katie, Cai, Erin and Annabelle (the seniors) and is so happy that she can act with some of them in their last show.
