Lindsay is super stoked to be a part of this incredibly talented cast!

Favorite roles include Eva Peron in Evita, Sally Bowles in Cabaret and Yitzhak in Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

Terry Sheldon - Monsignor O'Hara
Terry is delighted to be performing in yet another CTC production! While the role of a clergyman differs a bit from the avaricious businessmen he has been inhabiting recently (mad developer Hertz Klinemann in Rock of Ages and stockbroker Elisha Whitney in Anything Goes), Terry has played men of the cloth before. He was recently seen as one of the priests in Jesus Christ Superstar for CTC, portrayed Save-A-Soul Mission bass drummer Arvide Abernathy in Guys and Dolls (CTC), played another money-motivated friar as Brother Martin in Incorruptible (South Park Theatre, near Pittsburgh) and had a riotous turn as the demented Reverend Snowden (who speaks only in TV show theme song lyrics) in the hilarious world premiere of The Last Crumm, also for South Park Theatre. As always, it is a great honor to share the stage with the talented cast, crew and production staff of Carlisle Theatre Company!

Mary Adams - Ensemble

Ron remains ever thankful to his wife Patty, who lets him come and revive his theatrical spirit in this over the last few years. Raising the rafters with high-spirited nuns or Carlisle Theatre people always promises to raise the spirits, so Sister Act at CTC leaves us doubly blessed!
