Liz is a senior Theater, Government & Environmental Studies student from Arlington, Virginia. She is deeply committed to arts education, collaborative-storytelling, and ecological wonder. Liz loves trains, cool rocks, and has a bad habit of singing her inner monologue. She is ‘sploding with gratitude for the friends, family, forum-goers, teachers and team-members who made this project possible.

Michayla is a (sort of) senior studying Theater and Education. She is from Amherst, MA which is just around the bend from the former town of Enfield, now the Quabbin Reservoir. Michayla is constantly astounded by the dedication and creativity of everyone who touched this project. She is so grateful for the dazzling minds of the designers, the chustpa of the actors, and the devotion of everyone who said yes to this piece when it was just a tiny seed.

Camille is a sophomore who is shamefully succumbing to the allure of the American Studies major even though they’re Canadian. They love hot carbs, cold weather and ghost stories, and they’re so thrilled to be helping to tell one in Party at the Edge. Camille would like to thank the wonderful directors, Liz and Michayla, for allowing them to take part in this joyful show, and for featuring so many of Camille’s favourite things in it: worms, friendship, and hope for a safe future on Earth.

Malaika is a junior from Mumbai, India, currently majoring in Theater and Economics. When she’s not hanging with the Party team and writing rehearsal reports at the College of the Environment, you can find her working at the Writing Workshop, organizing something fun for the student group Writing Circle, or eating something at Usdan even though she promised herself she’d finally learn how to cook.

Annie is a senior from Louisville, Kentucky studying Dance and Art History. She is forever barefoot until it gets too cold, and happiest with her nose in a book. She is grateful beyond words for this incredible journey into the Party with these lovely folx.

Lonnie is a first-year student from Boston, Massachusetts. She is excited to be designing a show that combines her passion for funky patterned couches, non-linear storytelling, and overcomplicated PowerPoints. Outside of costuming, Lonnie has a possibly unhealthy obsession with historical clothing and musical theater. In other words, she's a huge nerd who is honored to be working with so many other wonderful nerds to bring this production to life.

Alix is a sophomore, transfer student from Marblehead, Massachusetts. She is currently confused about her major but is interested in theater, film, biology, and environmental studies. She spent most of the pandemic working at a bakery and is very proud of her ability to write on baked goods. Alix is also very excited to be a part of this show and play a convincing grandma.

Drew is a sophomore from Erie, Colorado who went full Wesleyan as a prospective math and theatre major. At any odd moment, he can be found doing all sorts of logic puzzles, brewing tea, or cooking, all the while singing along to the album he’s in the mood for. Some other fun facts about him: he’s the friend group’s patented Simpsons Encyclopedia, Tetris Grandmaster, and Cat Dad. He is sorry his cat Poppin can’t see the show but thanks her (and his family) for withstanding years and years of his relentless singing.
