On November 14 of 2003 at 8:00 pm in a middle school auditorium in Glen Ridge, New Jersey a two year old Jewish and Puerto Rican pirate named Samy Cordero made her community theatre debut. Since then she has made it a point to immerse herself in all aspects of the artform theatre that she can. From musicals to plays, comedy to drama, she does it all.  She also is known to weave a fantastic potholder.  Recently she was seen as Jeanie in Hair at Vanguard Theater Company, and Catkin in the first national tour of Catkid Comic Club the Musical with TheatreWorksUsa. She believes that art is a critical entryway to the cultural and social narratives that define our everyday lives, and so often need to be challenged. She uses the power of radical storytelling to deeply connect with anyone willing to listen.
