Putting it together, particularly alongside Kisky and Vicky, has been the most wonderful, laugh-filled experience. Special thanks to Kisky for First Folio tyrades and backstage smooches – I love you forever. 



Victoria Schaad (She/Her)

Originally from Bakersfield, CA, Victoria moved to Bend in 2019. Since then she has been in countless amazing productions. Most recently The Old Man and The Old Moon, here at The Greenhouse Cabaret and Something Rotten performed at CTC. She would like to thank Richard for coming up to her, Kisky, and Grey backstage at Something Rotten, shoving a script into our hands and telling us we were going to do the show. It’s been a blast getting to work alongside two of her favorite people, including her first made Bend theatre buddy. She would also like to give a big thank you to her new husband, Zach, who was a big trooper running lines with her every time she asked. Here’s to many many more my love!
