This is Karyn’s first production with The Stirling Players. She has a passion for Shakespeare having played the roles of Lady Macbeth, Portia, Ophelia, Rosalind and Mariana in Measure for Measure with the Adelaide University Theatre Guild. Nell Gwynn has given her the opportunity to approach the theatre of that time from a different perspective. With Therry Dramatic Society she played Annelle in Steel Magnolias and Agnes in Dancing at Lughnasa. She won the Best Actress Award in the Hills Festival of Plays playing Mary Girard in The Insanity of Mary Girard with Blackwood Players.

After a break from the theatre due to her work as a medical practitioner and family commitments, she is looking forward to treading the boards again with her fellow cast members.
