Eleanor Black is a freshman at Linfield University, where she is studying theatre arts, creative writing, and musical theatre. She would like to remind everyone that the earth without “art” is just “eh,” and that’s really lame. Eleanor has been in many shows, usually playing the crazy drunk lady — Mrs. Peacock in “Clue,” Alice in “The Addams Family,” etc. This is her second show with Sunstone Theatre. Eleanor would like to thank Mary Tyler Moore and Ace Frehley — her cats.
