Pizzuti Photography ---------------------- ADS ---------------------- ---------------------- WHO’S WHO ---------------------- Daniel Kasenburg as Ja’far Daniel is simultaneously elated and terrified to be playing Ja'Far in Dramatically Incorrect's production of Twisted! After more than a decade of cruelly depriving himself of the joy of being on stage, he decided to slowly get back into theatre as a New Year's resolution in 2018, and since then he has appeared in Arlington Friends of the Drama's productions of Witness for the Prosecution and The Addams Family. An incorrigible Canadian, Daniel moved to the Boston area to pursue a PhD in computer science at Tufts, where he spends his days researching how to give robots ethical reasoning capabilities. Special thanks to the phenomenal cast and crew, family and friends. Leo Ducharme as Aladdin Leo Duke is proud to be making his DITDG Debut as Aladdin in Twisted! Leo is currently studying Music Performance and Theatre Arts at the University of Massachusetts in Lowell. His most recent credits include The Baker in “Into the Woods”, Benedict in “Snowflakes: or Rare White People”, and Hercules/Cronos in “The Greek Mythology Olympiaganza”! Leo could not be more excited to be performing in his favorite Starkid show, and has even taken great lengths to get into character. Have you not noticed that your wallet is missing yet? Ta-Dah! Sara Landry as Princess Sara is making her second Dramatically Incorrect (DITGDC) appearance. As a newer resident of Lowell, she is delighted to join the Dramatically Incorrect family. While long walks on the beach are nice, acting is what she loves to do. Previous credits include Maureen Johnson in RENT, the Witch in Into The Woods, and Ensemble in Cannibal! The musical with Actorsingers. She is grateful to her friends and family for their love and support especially to Phil Laks for being so supportive. Treasure each other and please take precautions to keep from Covid-19 from spreading… we all want to get back to theater as we once knew it. ---------------------- WHO’S WHO ---------------------- Caitlyn McLeash as Sherrazade Caitlin is thrilled to be a part of TWISTED! Favorite past roles include Spider ("James and the Giant Peach'', Acting Out!), Silly Girl ("Beauty and the Beast'', Acting Out!), and Pickles ("The Great American Trailer Park Musical'', ACT Theatre Company). When she's not chasing toddlers or performing on stage, she performs at events with Party Princess Productions-Boston(characters.io). She would like to thank her family & friends for supporting her, both on the stage and off. Connor Forbes as Achmed Connor Forbes is extremely excited to be making his Massachusetts theatre debut with Dramatically Incorrect. As a New Hampshire native, this is definitely a trek for him, but has been completely worth it in the end. Favorite previous shows include The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), Cannibal The Musical, Beauty and the Beast, Mamma Mia, Flashdance, and High Fidelity. In his free time, Connor enjoys not sleeping, playing board games, and writing biographies about himself in the third person. Fun Fact: Connor has actually been on stage in front of a Broadway audience before, maybe ask him about it.
