Tara D. Kennedy

Tara D. Kennedy has been performing in some capacity since the age of 5, primarily as a tap dancer and in musical theatre. Her favorite roles include Florence in "Chess," Dr. Eve Bolinger in "Sordid Lives," Phyllis Dale in "42nd Street" (twice!), Alice Beane in "Titanic," and Blanche in "Brighton Beach Memoirs."
She has no formal degree in theatre, but has studied acting, voice, and dance since childhood as a pastime, and is an avid fan of theatre and performance. She holds a BA in Art History from Northwestern University, an MLIS/CAS in Library Science/Preservation and Conservation Studies from the University of Texas at Austin, and an MS in Forensic Science from the University of New Haven.
When not performing, she works at the Yale University Library preserving their collections, and she reviews theatre performances for OnStage (onstageblog.com) and as a member of the Connecticut Critics Circle (http://www.ctcritics.org/members/kennedy.html).
She loves cats, but hated "Cats."
