ABOUT CHRISTMAS WITH THE KRANKS
Finally alone for the holidays, Luther (Tim Allen) and Nora Krank (Jamie Lee Curtis) plan to eschew the Christmas traditions and take a cruise in the Caribbean instead. This doesn’t sit well with their Christmas-obsessed neighbors Vic Frohmeyer (Dan Aykroyd) and Walt Scheel (M. Emmet Walsh), who are determined to win the annual “best decorated street” competition, and the Kranks soon find themselves social outcasts because of their lack of Christmas spirit.

The 2025 season sees her role debut as Kate Pinkerton in Madama Butterfly in her company debut with Opera on the James, as well as competing as a semi-finalist in the 37th Annual Annapolis Opera Vocal Competition. In 2025 she was awarded a Special Projects Grant by the Evanston Arts Council to present Elgar’s Op. 37 Sea Pictures in recital.
