Carolyn’s Bio for Prime Stage’s The Outsiders (Mar 6-15)

/ 13 Feb 2020

Carolyn Jerz (Cherry Valance) is thrilled to return to Prime Stage Theatre after playing Viola in Twelfth Night last season! She has performed with PICT Classic Theatre (Jane Eyre; The Merchant of Venice; Oliver Twist; and Great Expectations) and St. Vincent Summer Theatre (Beauty & the Beast). Other roles include Maria (West Side Story), Luisa (The Fantasticks), Maggie (A Chorus Line), Mary Warren (The Crucible), Puck (A Midsummer Night’s Dream), and the Dew Drop Fairy in the Westmoreland Symphony Orchestra’s 25th Anniversary Nutcracker ballet. She has won PPT’s Shakespeare Monologue Contest three times, and shares in a Guinness World Record entry for Fastest Musical Production (Stage Right’s Children of Eden, 14-1/2hrs from start to curtain-time). She has also starred in grant-winning shows that raised awareness of pediatric cancer and of teen depression. Off-stage, Carolyn studies theater and dance at Seton Hill University, as well as Health Science, for which she is completing an internship in physical therapy. Next up: See her in April as the Yellow Peril in PICT’s Da. Headshot Photo Credit: Kelly Tunney.
