Preservation Hall Jazz Band: 60th Anniversary Celebration at Jones Hall

Andrew Hughes

Andrew is thrilled to be taking the stage at Off Central Players with this incredibly talented cast. He has been seen most recently at the Gulfport 1 Act festival and in West Coast Players production of “Honky Tonk Hissy Fit”. When he isn’t performing for strangers Andrew splits his time between sailing, cooking, and tennis. He would like to thank his friends for their continued support, and Steven for giving him the chance to play this role.

Tracey Reynolds

Tracey is thrilled to be making her debut performance with the Off-Central Players as Claire! Tracey is a Tampa native who began her professional acting career in the 90s in NYC where her credits included roles in off-off Broadway and regional productions of THIS SIDE OF GREY (Bunny), STAGE DOOR (Jean), MY SISTER EILEEN (Helen), and more. Tracey now works primarily in the Southeast region. Locally, she has appeared in stage productions of THE WILD WOMEN OF WINEDALE (Edith/Betty); CENNTENNIAL CASTING (Edie); and ‘TIL BETH DO US PART (Beth). You may spot her in a variety of regional and national brand commercials; the true crime series AMERICAN DETECTIVE (Discovery+), the short film GLOSS; and the web-based series DIGITAL HUMAN. If you’re a fan radio theatre (like she is!), you might catch her in one of the LIVE RADIO THEATRE shows at St. Petersburg’s Studio@620. She wants to thank her wonderful husband, Chris, and her awesome kids, Ryan and Delaney, for their ongoing support of her pursuit of doing what she loves most.
