 Here at the Grassroots Shakespeare Company, we do not believe in shaming our actors for not submitting their bios. We simply consult The Orb to determine what their bio would look like, had they submitted one. Here's what The Orb had to say: 
Kira has recently left the world of soup wrestling (entirely on their own and not due to certain scandals you may have read about involving accidentally pantsing The Pope) and has embarked on their new career where they fight Time Square Elmo's for pocket change. Some might see this as a step down from "soup wrestling." Those people are wrong and Kira has much leftover soup to throw at such maligning besmirchers

Goldie is ecstatic to be in a Grassroots production after years of watching inspiring productions. Goldie has been immersed in the theater world ever since she was young. She saw “Singing in the Rain” by some highschool in 4th grade and said “This is the meaning of life. I’m doing this” and she did. Some of her roles include Bet in Oliver, as well as the choreographer for the show. As well as Ophelia in ‘Hamlet’, Mrs. Webb in ‘Our Town’, and ensemble in ‘The Little Mermaid’. She has graduated from the American Fork Conservatory of Performing Arts, and attends UVU. She was in the UVU Rhythmic Tap Company for a  semester where she adored choreographing with her team. She has loved this experience and is craving more Shakespeare than ever!

 November has been watching GSC perform with starry eyes since their first performance of Much Ado About Nothing around 2009. Now that they actually understand what the characters are saying, their love for Shakespeare has only grown. Their performance as Claudio has taken them back full circle to the show that started it all, and they could not be more thrilled! 

Outside of theater, you can catch November performing in drag shows, playing at open mics, experimenting with makeup, felting, embroidering, drawing, and god knows what else by now. They can’t wait for people to see the show, and they hope to infect more innocent people with the disease of thespian-ism, as was done to them.

Bethanuel Cheese McGriddle (TM), as you surely know, was raised by the mole people deep within the earth. It is unclear whether she is, herself, a mole person. Since challenging the Mole King and earning passage to the overworld, Bethanuel has found it difficult to right the wrongs of the overworld. They continually get distracted by shiny things, soft things, round things, squishy things... really just most things. They have found that The Sun is an unruly tyrant that oppresses this world from their throne of lies in the sky. Her new mission is to defeat The Sun. While efforts to do so have been thwarted thus far, she remains vigilant and busies herself with a new contraption that will either defeat The Sun or turn out to be a model train set. Progress is promising.

Katherine Moulton refuses to leave the lab until they have perfected the ultimate chicken. A chicken that can perform calculations greater than any super computer and yet love as sincerely as the ocean is deep. A chicken that will envelop the world in their loving bosom, subduing our violent nature with sweet breathes of wisdom. The chicken will defeat darkness and lift light into the ether for all time. Once Katherine has achieved this noble pursuit, they're going to get full-on blasted and make out with a stranger on the beach. 

 Cilla is thrilled to be with Grassroots after being a fan for years. She made her stage debut at age three as “Russian Baby in Head Scarf” and went on to appear in toy commercials, variety shows (it’s an 80’s thing), and music videos, in which she perfected the art of not looking into the camera. As an adult, Cilla has worked in scenery for TV, theatre, amusement parks, and haunted houses. She is a student at UVU, teaches acting at Utah Conservatory of Performing Arts, and is obsessed with watching classic Universal monster movies on a tube TV.

Chase has an incredible back tattoo of a dinosaur battling a gas supergiant. You got to see this thing. It is wicked sweet. When chase is not adding to their back tattoo, they can be found playing eerie harp in the woods to voodoo dolls they fashioned from litter. You may be one of them.... Do you hear ghostly, atonal sounds drifting in the wind? Do you sometimes feel the breeze in your bones as if their was a doll of you made of discarded straws? If so, then you should really ask yourself if you properly APPRECIATED Chase's back tattoo and maybe that's what you did to FORCE Chase into making a voodoo doll of you from trash.

Gary has done a bajillion Grassroots shows and you've seen him, that's great and all but none of that matters, what's really important is that he's a new dog dad and is never going to stop using the term, no matter how many people it annoys. Her name is Truly-- I like it, it's a good name, I did want to go with Collossus-Nuculoso Destroyer of Bad Vibes, but my partner pointed out that that wouldn't fit on the leash tag, so we went with Truly. Truly is a pomeranean, which makes me nervous because that sounds like a delicious Italian dish, and no ones eating my dog, by gum,  so I'm gonna lie and tell people that she's a floofy-woofy breed because that's what she looks like and no one actually knows anything about dog breeds, they're all pretending, so people will definitely buy it, I'm sure. Truly joins our gremlin dog Wookie (I'm still not convinced he's a dog, but we love him regardless) in our lil household. Truly is so cute you guys don't even know and I love her and I'm gonna spoil the poop outta this dog because I am a reckless and irresponsible human being, unlike Truly , who is perfect (but also not a human being).
