Having recently retired as long-time member of the Limelight Board of Directors, Linda is excited to bring her experience as an acting director to the Limelight stage. A retired high school Theater Arts teacher and resident of St. Augustine since 1964, Linda’s passion for the theatre was born when cast as the female dramatic lead in Florida’s State play, Cross and Sword. Linda is one of the proud “early alums” of Flagler College where she was inducted into its Theater Hall of Fame. She has performed with the Ancient City Theater, Flagler College, A Classic Act Theater as well as 22 staged productions at the Limelight. Some of her favorite past performances include Girls Weekend, Blythe Spirit, The Glass Menagerie, The Dixie Swim Club, Harvey, No S*x Please, We’re British, Laundry and Bourbon, The Full Monty , The Diaries of Adam and Eve and, most recently, Kitchen Witches. A highlight of her performances was in Limelight’s “St. Augustine’s Got Talent” production where she won first place by performing Lucille Ball’s Vitameatavegemin commercial.
