Gretchen is delighted to be bringing BEAUTIFUL to Shea's 710 after playing Cynthia in the 2023 production at MusicalFare, for which she received an Artie Nomination. Recent credits include SHELTERED (Hani Mueller) at JRT, URINETOWN (Ens.) at SGT, and LEGALLY BLONDE (Elle Woods) at Shea's 710. Gretchen holds a BFA in Musical Theatre from SUNY Fredonia and currently works full time as the Education Manager for Shakespeare in Delaware Park. Gretchen would like to thank her parents for instilling a love for great musicians such as Carole King from birth. To Maria, her Carole & bestie on stage and off. And to her husband, Brendan, always - you’ve got a friend.
