Sara Keely McGuire

Sara Keely McGuire is a Founding Member of the Camenae Ensemble Theatre Company and is very proud of it! Sara wrote her first lines of poetic dialog at the age of three when she turned to her mother and said, "look mommy the flowers are dancing, the wind is singing." It's been a long journey from there to the stage wearing every imaginable for the last 12 years or so. The hats she think fit best are writer, director and actor - in that order though she has been known to throw down some paint every once in a while. Sara has recently served on the board of Stockyards Theatre Project and will soon trade that for the Women's Theatre Alliance while trying to remain a superwoman in her day job as a Database manager/grant writer/publication designer (there go the multiple hats again) using both sides of her brain every day. Sara's play Triple Goddess was the first full production of the Camenae, and that fact makes her very happy. Other plays recently seen or heard about town include Hotel California, Voltage Saturation, and Change. She hopes to add to the list soon. As a director you might have seen the Adventures of Lizzy and Rilla for Stockyards, The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus for Camenae, and looking forward to revisiting Marlowe with Dido Queen in 2006. If you caught Sara as Ophelia for the Camenae, she will love you forever, but she was last seen in Caffeine Theatre's production of Silva as an actor/acorn. Sara wishes the spirit of Camenae to everyone, and that (according to Sara when she waxes poetic and uses sweeping hand gestures) is to unite through art the various disciplines of the modern humanities and to explore spirit, self, and the obscure.
