Early Retirement

Creepshow

I’m grateful I was asked to appear in the first episode of the series based on the iconic movie; again with a script based on the words of the great Stephen King. It was a delight for her to be directed by Greg Nicotero and to join Tobin Bell and Giancarlo Esposito in Grey Matter.

Along the way, the people they meet and friendships they build begin to heal the ghosts of their pasts.

Pippin

Adrienne spent 2015 and part of 2016 playing Berthe, Pippin’s grandmother, in the National Tour of Pippin. Singing her sang while she hung upside down from a trapeze 18′ in the air. She had a great time, as you can see! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXoSzkF4rYM
