Lisa Penza - "Debbie Cornion"
The fabulosity of Lisa strikes again in her third show with The Other Vic 2

different lengths of string, and play Xmen. What am I writing this for again? This isn't in my contract!

Christina is a 25 year old actress from Georgia and is making her first theatre
debut in this production. In entertainment, she is simply a moth to the flame. Acting and Humanities are

to follow her dream no matter how long or tough that road is.
Kevin Austin - "Petie Cornion"

in Canada by his loving, crazy family. He graduated from Fanshawe College from their Theatre Arts program
in 2004 and trekked down here for an extended visit. In his spare time he writes music and stories for stage and screen. This
is Kevin's first time working with the Other Vic II and he's gracious for the opportunity as well as the acceptance he's received
from all involved. Special thanks go out to his encouraging family both here and away, his extremely supportive girlfriend,
as well as her family.

(all with The Other Vic 2), as well as "Bye Bye Birdie", and "Assassins". However, she's still holding out for her dream
role as Wonder Woman. Ali would like to thank her awesome husband Steve, Stella, Lushy D, Jeanette and the cast, the kind
folks at the Empire Diner, and Tom and Will for reasons that have nothing to do with this show .

at Toronto's Second City and earned degrees in Theatre and Arts Management from Rutgers. Her recent NYC-area productions
have included Biloxi Blues, Hamlet II, Run for Your Wife and Steel Magnolias. Dian also co-wrote, produced
and starred in the hit NYC public access TV sketch comedy series, "Playing With Pu" (1999-2002). This is
Dian's sixth Other Vic II go-around because ... well ... dead bodies rock! Love to James for
so gracefully putting up with her. Cheers to Steve, Ali, Jeanette, Lisa and the rest of the cast for making this show
(and so many others) so awesomely insane.
Josh Deely - "Vito Garelli"
Josh is thrilled to be back with The Other Vic for his fifth show.
Josh adds the role of Vito to a myriad of great....goombatz roles he's played alongside Kip (A Recipe for Murder), Victor(Murder
on Mysteria Lane) and Big Jule (Guys and Dolls). Josh has also written two shows of his own, one of which will be performed
in Sept (Come see it!). For this role Josh did extensive research by watching all 3 Godfathers, Goodfellas, Casino and
every season of the Sopranos, during which the cut to black in The Soprano's series finale sent Josh into a psychotic rage
which caused him to run through the streets of Bayside, Queens screaming Journey at the top of his lungs. Now that his
medication has kicked in Josh would like to thank Jeanette and Steve for always believing he can be the best Italian possible,
Ali, Dian, Lisa, Christina, Kevin and Craig for being an awesome cast to work with. He'd also like to thank the employees
of The Empire Diner for tolerating the insanity of another Other Vic cast.
