Jamey Ketner : Nancy
Jamey earned her MFA (acting) in Chicago at DePaul’s Theatre School (Goodman), and her BFA in acting and creative writing at Eastern Michigan University.
Some of her favorite shows have included A CHRISTMAS MEMORY, A LION IN WINTER (Alais), THE LAST NIGHT OF BALLYHOO (Lala), THE HEIRESS (Catherine), LES BELLES SEURES (Angeline), LIBERAL HOME COMPANION (Susan) and her work with the Lifelines Theatre Company (a performance troupe that concentrated on interactive theatre about HIV and AIDS).
During her training at Eastern she acted in a wide range of modern theatre and performance studies pieces, and directed two full-length shows, while at DePaul’s conservatory she concentrated on classical theatre.
When not creating theatre, writing or working to sustain PasadenaLEARNs (an after school program), she can be found running, biking, exploring and traversing the mountains and topography of Southern California. One of her hopes is to deeply impact audiences through the creative work that she collaborates on.

Jonathan Fox : Daniel
Jonathan began his professional acting career at the tender age of five doing voice-overs and stage productions. At sixteen, he landed his first Broadway show, THE FIRST DAY OF US, a golden moment in theatre history, one that closed after three days.
After returning to school, he studied theatre at S.U.N.Y. Binghamton, graduated with an M.F.A. and relocated to New York City performing in dozens of stage productions there, including: The PRINCE AND THE PAUPER, MEDEA, BLACK COMEDY, and the Obie award winning production of THE TAMING OF THE SHREW.
On the road he toured with companies of GREASE, FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, and THE BOYFRIEND, to name a few. He then went on to join the Acme Repertory Theatre in residence at The National Shakespeare Company in New York and had the good fortune to bring Shakespeare, Brecht, Moliere, Ibsen and Shaw to audiences everywhere.
In 1980, Jonathan made the inevitable trek to Los Angeles and joined the television cast of FAME as Norman Benzer, the oboe playing, yarmulke wearing "nerd" of the fictional School of Performing Arts set in New York City.
He also appeared in such classic 80's and 90's sitcoms as THE JEFFERSONS, DIFF'RENT STROKES, ONE DAY AT A TIME, THE FACTS OF LIFE, ARCHIE BUNKER'S PLACE, and THREE'S COMPANY. His film work includes several "teen angst" movies, working with Sean Penn and Nicholas Cage in RACING WITH THE MOON, John Cusak in BETTER OFF DEAD and with Madelyn Kahn in Billy Crystal's hilarious spoof of ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST.
As soon as facial hair started to appear, the phone rang less often and Jonathan took a long hiatus from the cruel light of Hollywood, choosing instead to write short stories, such as THE ADVENTURES OF CARSON CLEMONS, PRIVATE EYEFUL and plays, such as THE READINESS FACTOR and has several television shows currently in development.
Recently, for some inexplicable reason, the phone has started to ring again, bringing Jonathan out of his self-imposed "retirement" to work with Mimi Rogers as a murderer in TWO MINUTE MYSTERIES, and as a lying, cheating con-artist in THE REAL DIEHL. He is thrilled that the phone rang with a request for him to appear as Daniel in OUT OF STEP, an offer he could not refuse.

The L. A. Wranglers
In 2003 a group of friends who shared a love of music and dance gathered at the Rawhide Bar in Southern California. Shortly thereafter, Los Angeles' premier dance group, The LA Wranglers was formed. "We wanted to take line dancing to the next level", the group's founder and choreographer, Rick Dominguez stated. Since then the group has been building their repertoire and performing throughout the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Combining traditional country-western with Latin, hip-hop, and modern dance moves, the LA Wranglers' high-energy choreography thrills crowds wherever they entertain. The LA Wranglers have continued to expand their performance schedule each year with private parties, conventions and annual performances at the following high-profile events:
Pride Festivals in Los Angeles, Long Beach and Palm Springs
GSGRA Rodeos in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco
Sundance Stompede, San Francisco's annual country-western dance weekend
In addition to performing, the group found themselves in the GSGRA Dance Competition in San Francisco, California where they took first place in the "dance group" category and now hold the GSGRA state line dance championship title. The state competition led to an invitation to the International competition where they won the International Championship title awarded by the IGRA in Denver, Colorado in November 2004.
