When Cathy was 15, she fell in love with dance and mime while studying at the Children’s Theater School with Myron Johnson and Wendy Lehr. She went on to dance with Zoe Sealy’s Minnesota Jazz Dance Company where she met aspiring choreographer Ken Delap. As an original member of Ken Delap’s Ozone Dance Company, Cathy performed across the Midwest and in New York City at the American Theater Laboratory.
Other performance highlights include playing the lead in Kenneth Robbins’ production, “Accidently Exalted” at St. Paul’s Landmark Center, numerous productions at Chanhassen Dinner Theaters, Minnesota Opera, Kentucky Opera, and Minnesota Orchestra’s Summer Pops Concerts, and live business theater events. Choreography credits include Chanhassen Dinner Theater, Minnesota Opera, Theatre Exchange, History Theater, Skylark Opera, Target Corporation, as well as colleges and high schools.
As a mime, Cathy was an artist in residence through the Minnesota State Arts Board’s Artists-in-Education Program, co-authored “The Mime Alphabet Book” with her sister, Nina, and performed as a Yoplait mime in New York and New Jersey.
Since 1996, she’s been working as a marketing writer for Twin Cities-based creative agencies and corporate clients. She still enjoys performing but now as a storyteller at The Moth, Minnesota Fringe Festival, Patrick’s Cabaret, TEDx, Story Club, and Island of Discarded Women podcast.
