“I’m excited to appear in Spirit for the 10th time. These characters have become like family and this show has allowed me to work with many world-class directors, actors, and technicians. Thanks to Leslie, Katie, and Denese for your support. I dedicate this performance to my lovely spirits Raymond & Mary Proctor and Daryl Pike.”
