On this episode of The Yay, Norman and I welcome Melissa Momboisse, actress, singer and teacher at Pure Barre at Walnut Creek. Melissa and I shared the stage at the DMT doing Grey Gardens, where she played the younger Edith Bouvier. Melissa was also a Hodgkins Lymphoma survivor and was featured on the Pharmacy Podcast. Melissa talks about her journey in theater, her battle with cancer and her future in bay area theatre.
Melissa's next show will be South Pacific, at the South Bay Musical Theatre - it opens May 16 and closes June 5th. You can find more information here: https://www.southbaymt.com/shows/ticket-sales/south-pacific/
