the cake | meet the cast

As we begin to wrap up our last full week of rehearsal, we thought we'd take this opportunity to introduce you to the wonderful cast of THE CAKE! Read on to find out a bit about why these actors are excited to tackle this project.

Erla Faye Forsyth (Della) told us that "THE CAKE has challenged me to really delve into the source of my belief system and to ask myself some difficult questions about how I express my spirituality."
Tim Dixon (Tim) shared: "I'm excited about the script and story, written by a woman whose work I admire in THIS IS US. I'm excited about the challenge, to bring these characters to life and be true to their stories. I'm excited to be working yet again with Erla Faye Forsyth, a good friend and amazing actor. And I'm excited to be here, or as George Burns once said, 'Nice to be here? At my age it's nice to be anywhere.'"
Cecilly Day (Macy) is ecstatic to be making her Pacific Theatre debut in The Cake as Macy. From the moment she read this hard hitting, heart warming script she knew she had to be a part of this cast.
Cecilly shared that "While I love performing in musicals, I am so excited to dive into a straight play and challenge myself as an actor."
Stephanie Elgersma (Jen) says, "I'm excited to eat cake for work! But in a more serious response - I'm so happy to be working with Pacific Theatre again. It's been eight years (almost to the day!) since I was last in a Pacific Theatre mainstage show and it feels a little like coming home!"
