*Content note: Today on Peoria Theatre People, Sarah and Lisa discuss some of Lisa's early roles in shows like The King and I. As white people, Lisa and Sarah are both committed to aiming for better representation for people of color in theatre and working toward being more inclusive. Peoria theatre needs to make an effort to be welcoming to people of color. Now, Sarah and Lisa absolutely value roles being appropriately cast in shows such as The King and I.*
Lisa White is no stranger to the Peoria theatre scene. She has experience in early childhood education and is a "teacher at heart" (in her own words), but does theatre as much as she can. Peoria theatre will miss her as she and her husband just moved out of state! Audiences in Peoria have seen Lisa in roles like Ren's mom in Footloose and have seen her directing work with shows like 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, [Title of Show] and You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown (she directed Sarah in this). Peoria audiences have also seen her costume work in shows like Big Fish, The Robber Bridegroom, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame. She's done a little bit of everything, basically! Today on Peoria Theatre People, Lisa and Sarah discuss why she costumes her own shows, her wonderful husband Kurt, how the pandemic has affected theatre, Metamora Thespian Society, discuss her love of doing a show at the tent in the heat, her time as a hip hop dancer, and why her auditions as a director always include improv.
