Nathan Pease is delighted to be making his Idle Muse Theatre debut! Nathan's regional favorites include Bruce in "Blue/Orange", Demetrius in "Midsummer Night's Dream", Roderigo in "Othello", Anthony in "The House of Yes", Rudy in "Bent", both Dromio twins in "The Comedy of Errors" and the title roles in "Richard III", "Frankenstein", and "The Hobbit" among others. Thanks and love to his wonderful and supporting wife Sara and son Anthony.

Elizabeth MacDougald (Irene Adler) is thrilled to be returning to Idle Muse as "the woman”. She was previously seen with Idle Muse romping through the wilds of medieval Scotland last summer doing “a deed without a name” in “What The Weird Sisters Saw”. A graduate of Loyola University Chicago, other favorite roles around Chicago include Chris Gorman in "Rumors", Suzanne et. al. in "Picasso at the Lapin Agile", Kate in "The Taming of the Shrew" and Hippolyta/Titannia in "A Midsummer Night’s Dream", and an Artistic Associate with Babes with Blades. Many thanks to Evan for letting her tackle such an iconic character (even it did mean wearing a corset in Chicago in the summer…oh who are we kidding; the corset is hers and she volunteered), her fellow Victorian-clad cast mates, her family and friends, and her lovely boy Steve and her ever patient familiar Willow.

Brian Bengtson is excited to return for his third show with Idle Muse. He was last seen with the company this past spring in "Jerry and Tom".  Since graduating from Augustana College, Brian has spent the past year and a half acting in and around Chicago with numerous companies such as Village Players "Chad Morton's TV Christmas Miracle", Team Venture Productions "Fostered Ideal" & "Just Us Two", The Attic Playhouse "Cold Cold Feet" & "The Mousetrap", James Downing Theatre Company "Forever Plaid", and The Just Passing By Theatre Company "Fiddler on the Roof" & "Jesus Christ Superstar".  He's also appeared in several student films as well as the short independent film, "Judy Can't Stop". Brian sincerely thanks his family and friends for their constant support. Enjoy the show!

Jaron Salazar came from Arkansas to attend college in Chicago and major in theatre arts.  He has worked on many productions at Dominican University, such as "MacBeth" and "Lend Me A Tenor", and is thrilled to have an opportunity to perform in a professional play.  After college Jaron plans to get intov more professional theatre and hopes to become a film actor someday. Jaron would like to thank all of those who have helped him as an actor and those who made his participation in this production possible.

Matt is very excited to have his professional debut with Idle Muse, who recently just graduated from Dominican University with a degree in Theatre.  His most recent credits include Tito Merelli in "Lend Me a Tenor", Kinesias in "Lysistrata", and the Baker in "Into the Woods".  He would like to thank his friends, family, and especially his parents for all their support over the years.

Mara Kovacevic is a full-time science geek and a part-time theatre nerd. She was last seen in "What the Weird Sisters Saw", an Idle Muse production, as one of the three "Scottish Play" witches -- Cassandra. As a life-long Sherlock Holmes fan, she is very excited to be a part of this amazing production and in the role of a criminal, no less! Previous credits include, but not limited to, "Bloody Poetry", "Ceremony of Innocence", "Burning Chrome", "While Shakespeare Slept", "Medea", and "Baby". She is also the Treasurer for Idle Muse Theatre Company as purse strings are near and dear to her heart.

Daniel is stoked to find himself working with Idle Muse again, and is very grateful for the opportunity.  While at Illinois State University's School of Theatre, he appeared as Malviolio in "Twelfth Night" and as Edward Nigma in the world premier of "Gallery". He has spent the last year as a self-proclaimed "storefront cowboy", bouncing around the Chicago theatre scene, working with companies such as Oracle and New World Rep., and also fringe groups like Sandhill and The Co-Governors of Space.  Recently, he was seen walking around stage in his boxers as part of Just Say Yes Entertainment's "24 Hour Plays" at Gorilla Tango, and as a murderer in Idle Muse's "Shotgun Shakespeare: What the Weird Sisters Saw". He does his best work under the influence of too much coffee and the music of Jason Webley.   From here, Daniel knows not where he goes.
