Leading Ladies
Show Bios
Robin Tye Lennex (Florence) A classically trained ballerina, Robyn has played many roles in dance and theatre productions, from Arabian Coffee in The Nutcracker to Dawn in All In the Timing. She was most recently seen on State 48’s stage as Audrey in As You Like It, as well as Jenny Hill in CGCC’s Big Fish. Tremendous thanks and love to Matt, Mom & Dad, Jen, Pete, & The Boys. Special thanks to Andrea for always believing in her.
Keith Aspinall (Duncan Wooley) is appearing in his third State 48 production in the past year, taking on ever larger parts, first as Big Boy McGee in Murder at Sunset (~100 words of dialogue), then Duke Frederick in As You Like it (~500 words) and now Duncan Wooley (~2300 words). Honestly, this increase is not sustainable! But he thanks Andrea for having confidence in his ability to deliver. When not memorizing lines, Keith looks fondly, but forlornly at his ever growing (but under-played) board game collection. He thanks his wife Joanne for allowing him the time to perform!
Hannah Van Holten (Meg Snider)
Kylee Webb (Audrey) is 20 years old and is currently studying English at ASU and will be completing her B.A. in May. Kylee has been a cast member of many shows at State 48, playing such roles as Celia in As You Like It, Ramona Drake in Murder at Sunset, Margaret in Much Ado About Nothing, and Rita in Jekyll and Hyde. Like her character, Kylee also enjoys big words, overly explaining things, and attempting to be socially adept. She would like to thank Andrea and Judith for their hard work and dedication and her dogs, Jersey and Eviee, for keeping her sane.
Parker Nuttall (Leo “Max” Clark / 1st week) is thrilled, as always, to be working with State 48 once again!

He’d also love to thank the cast and their support!
Ethan Cook (Leo “Max” Clark / 2nd week) is 19 years old and attending ASU for Communication. He has worked with State 48 in two shows previously, being a Court Lord in As You Like It and King Duncan in Macbeth. Outside of State 48 he voice acts for freelance projects. Being his first purely comedic role in quite a while, he hopes you find some humor in his performance! (Even at his expense!)

You may have seen him in this building as Jaques or Macduff in some Shakespeare business, or in other buildings in roles like Mr. Mushnik or Chuck. When not acting, Bryce moonlights as an economics student at the devil college. Big thanks to Andrea for letting me stay a part of the arts, and a huge thank you to the entire cast for many good times and a wonderful experience.
