Vickie will portray the ranch house cook Copey in the Staged Reading of Anna Brennen's ECHO NEVADA, a riveting look at life on a ranch in northeastern Nevada set in 1948 during an early spring storm. The story follows a mismatched group of characters thrown into a rustic world of hard-working, hard-living, extreme circumstances, as each try to make their way in life. How and why have they come together? How do they manage to coexist? What are the outcomes of their choices?

These questions will keep you on the edge of your seat until the curtain falls. The unique characters are guaranteed to intrigue you and will linger in your memory for some time to come. This is a world that few people have experienced and is now gone forever.
