  • Meet the Cast: Teri Adams
    MEET THE CAST: TERI ADAMS TERI ADAMS (Iowa Housewife) has been with Menopause The Musical®! since 2006, where she first played IH at The American Heartland Theatre in her hometown, Kansas City, where it ran for 5 months. Since then, she has joined the MTM national touring company, and although still based out of KC, she has performed this role on numerous tours and sit-down productions across the country. Regional credits include Ruthless!, Blues In The Night, Dirty Blonde, Baby, Lend Me A Tenor, 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and the World Premiere of Gregg Coffin’s Rightnextto Me. Teri most recently appeared in MTM, as well as Church Basement Ladies (The Last Potluck Supper) at The Merry Go Round Playhouse (NY) for the Fingerlakes Musical Theatre Festival. Thanks to my G4 family and my actual family, and thank you all for supporting live theatre. MY STORY Cancer. I hate that word. The fact is, the word cancer strikes a terrifying chord with everyone, and most especially if you've watched it decimate your family. Everyone on my Mother's side had had a cancer diagnosis, three out of five dying from the disease, and my paternal aunt died of breast cancer at 31. I knew all too well about my family history. Cancer had been up close and personal. I had just turned 40, gotten married and was enjoying a particularly busy time in my career on stage. And then my doctor called. My cancer was discovered after a routine mammogram came back abnormal, resulting in a biopsy that revealed DCIS—a noninvasive, early form of breast cancer.

  • Quarterback Sami Grisafe Comes out of Retirement, Returns to the Chicago
    ChicagoPride.com News March 8, 2017 Quarterback Sami Grisafe comes out of retirement, returns to the Chicago Force By Ross Forman March 8, 2017 https://chicago.gopride.com/news/article.cfm/articleid/82083025 Singing sensation also has been a gridiron great on the local and international field CHICAGO, IL -- She's baaaack! Yep, Sami Grisafe, arguably the greatest quarterback in the history of women's tackle football, is returning to the Chicago Force after a two-year retirement. The eight-game Force regular-season kicks off in April and the home opener is May 6, when Chicago plays host to the Minnesota Vixen, with kickoff set for 6 p.m., at Evanston Township High School. Grisafe's return was spurred by team owner Linda Bache, who has announced the 2017 season will be the team's last, though new owner(s) could potentially acquire the team. And the Force, Grisafe said, has become her "surrogate family" over the past decade or so. "The idea of getting to play football with my sisters for one more year put a lot of joy in my heart, (and) I saw an opportunity to redeem myself after my injury-stricken season in 2014," Grisafe said. "I feel good about the decision. Football is my first love. You can never completely get your first love out of your system. Luckily, I still have gas in the tank and am fortunate enough to continue playing. It's also nice to still feel wanted by my teammates, coaches, and management." Still, Grisafe said it was a "very difficult" decision to put her pads back on.

    For Press Information ONLY: Cari Feiler Bender, Relief Communications, LLC 610-527-7673 or [email protected] AIDS WALK PHILLY & AIDS RUN PHILLY TO RAISE FUNDS, AWARENESS 25 th Annual Event Continues the Fight for HIV/AIDS in Philadelphia Region PHILADELPHIA – September 7, 2011 − For 25 years, AIDS Walk Philly has raised funds for HIV/AIDS service organizations in the Greater Philadelphia Region, and on Sunday, October 16, 2011, the 25th Annual AIDS Walk Philly & AIDS Run Philly presented by Merck continues the fight. One in five Americans infected with HIV don’t know it. Philadelphians can make a difference in the fight against HIV and AIDS by participating in AIDS Walk Philly, which will bring together nearly 15,000 people to raise money for HIV prevention education, public awareness, and HIV care services here in the Greater Philadelphia region. Walk and run beginning at the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Run along the certified 5K route on Martin Luther King Drive at 8am. Walk along the 12K route, beginning along Kelly Drive at 9am and returning on Martin Luther King Drive. Right in our own backyard, thirty thousand of our friends, family, and neighbors live with HIV, a condition for which they are often judged and misunderstood. In 15 years, the rate of infection has not decreased. The 25 th Annual AIDS Walk Philly will also be a time to reflect over the past 25 years of the fundraising event as well as 30 years that the epidemic has existed. Robb Reichard, Executive Director of AIDS Fund , explains that part of the mission of the Walk is to give Philadelphians a better understanding of current HIV/AIDS facts.
