ALABASTER

SHREWD PRODUCTIONS

After a tornado barrels through town leaving nothing but death and destruction, only June and her pet goat Weezy live to tell the tale. When a prominent photographer visits to take pictures of June’s scars, both are forced to reconcile the pain of loss and recovery. This darkly comic, all-female drama explores the meaning and purpose of art, and the struggle of the lost and tortured souls that seek to create it.

Liz has studied, worked and lived in New York & Los Angeles, can tie cherry stems in a knot in her mouth (8 second personal record), is a Showcase Showdown winner on The Price Is Right (yes: Bob Barker), and can cross one eye at a time. She also shares a birthday with Julie Andrews, still knows her tap jury routine from college, and seriously regrets quoting a Billy Joel song in the caption of her high school yearbook photo.

She currently lives in Austin, Texas with her dog, Harriet, and her husband who is not an actor and would rather keep to himself, thank you very much.
