Enjoy the show! DAWN NAKASHIMA Properties Designer, Scenic Artist Dawn is so pleased to have found a niche in theater stagecraft (props, set dressing, paint & build). One of her favorite pastimes is to “make things” and as the property master she gets to flex her creative, problem solving and resourceful-ness muscles. Turns out Dawn is well suited for this type of work with a BS in Industrial Design (SJSU) and an MFA in Studio Arts (Mills College). Some of Dawn’s favorite YMTC shows to work on for their unique challenges - Light in the Piazza, Shrek the Musical & Matilda. Check out Dawn's website for her latest creations: www.nakfinearts.com LUCRETIA FROKE Hair + Makeup Designer, Scenic Artist Lucretia (she/her) is a bay area maker based in Marin who has done makeup for a number of films big and small.

ISABELLA CAMPOS Assistant Director
Isabella (she/her) is a recent graduate from Carnegie Mellon University, and just obtained her BFA in Music Theatre. She will be starring in the new musical, Somewhere Over the Border , in the fall, but since this is her first summer out of school, she thought there would be no better job than to help younger artists grow into themselves as performers. She wants to thank Jennifer for giving her this opportunity and everyone who is watching for supporting these incredible artists!
