INTRODUCTION
Summer England was born and raised in the greater Cincinnati, Ohio area. She holds an MLitt and MFA (May 2021) in Shakespeare and Performance from Mary Baldwin University. She is classically trained in piano, singing, dancing, rhetoric, and acting. Her classical training has given her a sturdy foundation upon which she collaborates and creates. Her training has also made her into somewhat of a renaissance woman... though, she is still awaiting elaborate balls, extravagant portraiture, and delectable dresses to make their way back into the vernacular of the time. Until then, she will suffice herself with the fantastical costuming of her characters when the production allows. She believes that theatre can change the world but - in simpler terms - theatre makes people smile. And that is precisely why it is her passion. When Summer is not acting, you can find her tending to her garden, reading Tolkien, or making play-dough sculptures with her son, Harvey Jude. |
