Robert Hall: "I love the theater, not only because it brings so much pleasure to this weary world, but, for me, acting on stage is a chance to step out of the old repetitious Robert play and step into a whole new production, if only for a short time. What a relief!"
Jeanne Rogers: Jeanne began acting in 1975 as a way to overcome shyness. From Ado Annie in “Oklahoma” to various roles In Shakespeare Northwest to a featured extra in the film, “What the Bleep Do We Know?” she experienced the freedom of becoming a different personality on stage. She currently devotes her time to painting, writing, teaching Argentine Tango and is quick to add that she is as excited as a tick in hound’s ear to be cast as Vivien Leigh in “And Then There Was Nun.”

Her prior acting experience- "My life, it's seen more drama than Broadway! A huge thank you to Luna Azul Productions and my fellow thespians for their guidance and support - they made my dream come true!"

Anita Harris:"I always knew I should have bee an actress, but work always got in the way! My acting career got started thanks to a couple of gin and tonic's which gave me the courage to enter a raffle at the Hotel California where I won an acting workshop with Isabel Smyth. I then starred in two short plays and fame went to my head! My next roll was as Glinda the Good Witch in The Wizard of Oz with a Todos Twist. By then I was hooked and now I'm playing the part of Gloria Swanson and sure having lots of fun.
Vickie Butler: Vickie's previous acting experience consisted of two plays during her senior year of high school, and a one-act two years ago. As the Director’s Assistant (“Little Slave Girl”) during the highly acclaimed Wizard of Oz with a Todos Twist, Vickie loved her behind-the-scenes work with the cast and crew. Memorizing lines as Joan Crawford and collaborating with this year’s outstanding NUN ensemble has further increased her admiration for the art and craft of acting!
Marilyn Martin: Marilyn's stage experience began with drama class, in her freshman year of college, back in Connecticut.

And now, this is her debut with Blue Moon Productions as Judy Garland.
