Cait Keane (COL ’07) was involved with theater at Georgetown from the moment she arrived on campus. Content behind the scenes, Cait stage-managed for Mask and Bauble, nomadictheatre, Black Theatre Ensemble, and the Theater Department, also working as assistant to the Director of the Theater Program. Her most memorable shows include The Balcony, Antigone, and The Love of the Nightingale. She also served on the board of the Georgetown Players, produced their production of The Trial of Goldilocks, and appeared on-stage in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. She spent her first year after graduation in the south of France teaching English, and currently lives in NYC where she works for a translation company. She’s honored to be serving on the GTA board and wants to thank everyone who has made - and continues to make - the Georgetown theater community the amazing thing that it is.
Ian Fahey (Membership Chair - COL '07) spent all four years at Georgetown in theater. In addition to being awarded a Lifetime Membership in Mask and Bauble, he worked on and off the stage for Black Theatre Ensemble, nomadictheatre, and The Theater Program (favorite appearances include Much Ado About Nothing, Summertime, The Winter's Tale and A Few Good Men). Once the wonderful ride of Georgetown ended, Ian used his incidental Math major to become an actuary (ten points to anyone who knows what that is). Ian spends his spare time writing and hopes to finish his first book this year, just in time to present it to an anemic publishing sector. Ian still goes to see Georgetown productions and is grateful to give back to a community that's given him so much.
Emily Howard (SFS '07) was the Executive Producer of Nomadic Theatre at Georgetown, along with producing, stage managing, and light designing a myriad of productions, including Translations which opened in conjunction with Nomadic's 25th Anniversary Gala. After graduating from Georgetown, Emily worked for David, Wright & Tremaine in their DC office assisting with their merger and then moved back to her hometown of Austin, TX where she now works as an event planner for The RK Group.
Kristine Stefansic-Redko (CAS '91) was actively involved in Mask & Bauble, Nomadic Theater and Simply Musical Theater while at GU - appearing in Godspell (two productions), West Side Story, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd and Fiddler on the Roof, to name a few. As Student Communications Director for the Office of Performing Arts for two years, she produced the "Masquerade" Arts Gala her senior year. After graduating, Kristine was accepted into the Eugene O'Neill National Theater Institute and embarked upon a memorable six-week acting/singing journey to Berlin, Germany in the summer of 1991. She also helped found the original GTA, known as TOGA, with fellow thespian John Mirvish. After obtaining a Masters in Marketing from Johns Hopkins, she has worked at WETA-TV, American Express in NYC and Dow Jones, where she currently works as an Account Development Executive in San Francisco. She is married to Dr. Peter Redko and lives in beautiful Sonoma County, where she is an unofficial taste-tester for all of the major wineries. Kris is excited to be back in touch with her former and future friends in GTA, and hopes to assist with both Marketing and Fundraising efforts for the organization (all while drinking wine, of course).
Jen Rogers (COL '06) is currently working in New York City as the Production Coordinator for Shen Wei Dance Arts. Since Georgetown she has worked at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, The O'Neill Theater Center, Oslo Elsewhere, NYMF, Boomerang Theatre Company, and Nora Brennan Casting. While at Georgetown you may have seen her in The Illusion with M&B, Summertime with Nomadic and The Skin of Teeth with Georgetown Performing Arts Department, she also served on the M&B Board as the Technical Administrator in 03-04 and directed Schoolgirl Figure at the Davis.
Joe Gallagher (COL '04) directed four midnights for Mask & Bauble: WASP, Power Lunch, Pope and Anti-pope, and Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind. He acted in The Illusion, The Laramie Project, The Balcony, The Apple Cart, DBMOAF, the "Take Back the Night Play," and several midnights. He was Deputy President and Webmaster for the Georgetown Players. He won Nomadic's first Play-in-a-day competition. However, the only award he was ever given was for designing the poster for W;t. Currently Joe produces, acts in, and writes plays in New York City. He publishes scripts written by high schoolers for theatrical competitions. He still is not sure what the PPA is.
Sami Ghazi (MSB '06) owes a great debt of gratitude to student theater at Georgetown for giving him friends, experiences and thrills that he’ll never forget. Sami fell head over heels for student theater after his participation as set dresser for Mask & Bauble’s second show of his freshman year, Falsettos. Since then, Sami essentially made Poulton Hall his second home, working in various capacities including Producer, Tech Director and Stage Manager on shows including Cloud 9, The Trestle at Pope Lick Creek (the first collaboration show between Mask & Bauble and Nomadic Theatre), and The Apple Cart. Today, he spends his time convincing the media that his clients are worthy of their time as a public relations professional in New York. While he enjoys the job, he can’t help but be disappointed the age-old axiom of “measure twice, cut once” hasn’t come into play yet.
Austin Williams (SFS '08) was consumed by Georgetown Theatre from the moment he arrived on campus. He played mostly a tech role, twice serving as Mask and Bauble's Technical Director and designing for both M&B and nomadictheatre. Those wishing to see his mediocre acting talents had to wait for his annual appearance as Bob Cratchit in A Christmas Carol. Production credits include The Trestle at Pope Lick Creek (Light Design), Cabaret (Light Design), Hamlet (Fight Captain), and The Love of the Nightingale (Technical Director). Austin now works for the Department of Defense and attends as many Georgetown shows as possible.
Sarah Krokey (’06) braved the waters of transition and transformation at Georgetown, defending the glories of student theater (The Laramie Project, Trojan Women, 24-Hour Play Competition, DBMOAG, Midnights and many others) and supporting the formative creation of an esteemed department on campus through collaborative shows (Twelfth Night), PPA shows (Our Country’s Good, A Winter’s Tale) and summer productions (The Skin of Our Teeth, Dreamboy). She developed an Oral History project of Georgetown Theater, and painted a few cement blocks in the new student lounge. It was a joy to see everyone living at their full potential, and she thrived on the friendships and bonds created those four years. After graduating, she spent a year in Incisa val d’Arno, a small town in Italy, and has since worked for Catholic Near East Welfare Association in New York while pursuing a career in theater and film.
