Christine Anthony (she/her) is an actor, singer, photographer and graphic artist who lives among deer, bears and the occasional moose in a very (very) small town in the eastern Berkshires. Current role at WAM Theatre: Racquel in In Her Bones WAM Theatre: debut. Selected Theatre Credits Elsewhere: The Majestic Theater in West Springfield: Betty in The Patch by Danny Eaton (premiere production); Griselda in Tight Pants by Betel Arnold (premiere production); Berthe in Boeing, Boeing; Kate in All My Sons; Bad Ass Betty in The Great American Trailer Park Musical. Exit 7 Players, Ludlow, MA: Bertha in Pippin. Gateway City Arts, Holyoke: Agnes in The Building by Betel Arnold (premiere reading). Creative inspiration: I believe that storytelling, in all its forms, is the best and oldest way to share inherited wisdom, and to truly create understanding and empathy in a person who has learned to treat another human being as fundamentally different from themselves. Community Engagement/Activism: Worked for many years at the environmental non-profit the Connecticut River Watershed Council engaging the public in rehabilitating and protecting the creatures and waters of the Connecticut River and its tributaries. Proudest achievement: returning to school as a “mature student” to earn a BA in Public History at UMASS Amherst, then using that knowledge to preserve the historic legacy of the town of Heath, Massachusetts as their Historical Society’s Curator. Final word: It is a special privilege to bring a character to life for the first time.
