About Me
In the past several years, Cari has orchestrated the Thane of Cawdor's demise, hunted Jack the Ripper, butled in a Play that went Wrong, and pirated on the waters off the coast of Boston, among other theatrical adventures. Cari's 14 years of classical dance training often comes in handy onstage, as does her recent SAFD certification in stage combat.
By night an avid thespian, by day Cari is an English professor. She particularly enjoys teaching and studying fairy tales, adaptations across American media, and how stage combat contributes to narratives.

Twelfth Night, May 2026
Dive In Productions presents Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night, a riotous romantic comedy packed with disguises, bad decisions, and big feelings, directed by Kat Mail. When shipwrecks lead to secret identities and love triangles spiral wildly out of control, chaos (and comedy) reign. Twelfth Night invites audiences to laugh, swoon, and revel in Shakespeare at his most fun.
Fish slaps? Flying popcorn? Jacki Chan-inspired fighting? YES! This show has it all! Click here for tickets!
