About Us
Jami has been performing since the age of three. Growing up, she was a member of various singing and performing groups, but the theater bug truly bit her when she took acting lessons from the late Ralph Rodgers.
She is proud to say that her first true theater production was on Brighton High School's stage in "Shenendoah." Since then, Jami has performed on various stages along the Wasatch Front including Hale Centre Theatre and Rodgers Memorial Theatre.
David was lucky to have a mom that didn't like him sitting around the house during summer vacations. During one such summer, she signed David up for acting classes at Hale Centre Theatre. From then on, David was hooked.
His first production was in City Rep's "The Magician's Nephew." He has been seen on many stages including Plan-B Theatre Company, Hale Centre Theatre, and the Off Broadway Theatre.
Costars
Some of our favorite theater experiences come from being able to act in productions together. In fact, it was a theater production that introduced us.
We met in a production of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." It started as flirting across the stage. Professional, we know. Then one night Jami forgot to take her rings off and needed some place to quickly put them as the curtain went up. David, being the quick thinker he is, offered to put the rings in his pocket.
At the end of the show, Jami asked for her rings back and David, again being a quick thinker, said he would only give them back if Jami would go out to dinner with him. And the rest is history.
See, theater can make great changes in peoples' lives.
It's been 10 years since that fateful production of "Joseph." Our cast has grown from 2 to 6 and if the drama of our day to day life is any indication, then these kids have theater in the blood.
This Site
Theater has given us a lot. It is our simple hope that through this site we can give a little back by getting the word out about how wonderful live theater in Utah is.
David and Jami
"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players.
They have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts."
William Shakespeare - As You Like It
