I am an American actress, singer, voice over artist and coach. I’ve been living and working in Cologne, Germany for the past 28 years. What an adventure! I first came here when I was cast in a Broadway Musical Revue called “The Golden Musicals of Broadway” back in 1989.
I’ve always loved traveling and was interested in my European roots so moving to Germany to live was a no brainer. I didn’t expect that it would be such a different culture and mentality though. Also it wasn’t smart moving here without first knowing how to speak the language. Well, the result of that is a very funny solo stand-up show which I started performing in 2008 called “A Lost American in Germany”. The premiere of the new version of the show was in November 2011. I had a wonderful 6 year run with it and the final show was in October 2016 at the Euro Theater Central Bonn. Visit the show site at http://www.renish-solo.de
My German has gotten better and Cologne is my “home-away-from-home” now.
