Briana is honored to be helping tell this vital story with the wonderful cast and team at 100A Productions. Before an 11-year hiatus from the stage to pursue the speech-language pathology field, she has treasured past roles in Grease (Miss Lynch); The Sound of Music (Sister Sophia); Rent (Joanne); Doubt: A Parable (Sister Aloysius); and Oleanna (Carol). She has now re-established her ambitions in the arts and is currently passing along her knowledge to award-winning middle school students as a 2nd-year theatre arts teacher with Judson ISD. She continues to seek all adventures and opportunities in performance and production for growth and for the thrill! (bri.morales129@gmail.com) Mil gracias to all of Briana’s family members, close friends, and colleagues for their support in her passions; as well as the notable 100A Productions and Tobin Center for this opportunity. Que los testimonios de estos personajes y las mujeres que representan nunca sean eliminados de la historia.
