Hiccup’s contribution to my Halloween costume- burying himself under a pattern piece. Like he has literally hidden under it. (at The Dollhouse)

About Me

I’m Caitlin, and I’m finally coming through the other side of my quarter-life crisis. I live in Florida with my spoiled little cats, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock IV and Astrid Cagney Hofferson. I had the privilege of working at the Great Movie Ride in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for four years and was part of the closing team, so you might have seen me as a tour guide, Mugsi Toccata, or Kate Durango. I’m now currently a guide at Kilimanjaro Safaris. When I’m not driving around in circles pointing at four different kinds of antelopes, I’m often found performing in local theatrical productions. or spending time with my giant boyfriend. Favorite things include the smell of dryer sheets, marathons of canceled TV shows, and rainy days (as long as I’m indoors at home).

I am so excited to finally share this!! My first semester of college I played Mrs. Paddy in The Curious Savage and had an absolute blast. Next fall I will make my Stage directorial debut with this show!! I’m so excited to be a part of the Stage team and bring the inhabitants of The Cloisters to life again.

My Spotify is a mess.

Eleven years ago (yikes) I wrote a book that never saw the light of day, and I haven’t written much original work since. Today I won NaNoWriMo for the first time ever! I still have more to write and TONS more to edit, but I wrote 50,000 words this month!! #nanowrimo #nanowrimo2019 #nationalnovelwritingmonth #authortube

My view today! Catch me crying over Winged Encounters six times today. #caitlinthechristmaself

Last fall I had nine days to costume a production of Spring Awakening. I took a couple of days off from work and pulled, altered, and built as fast I could. I ended up making seven dresses, two sets of a Victorian underwear, and a flower crown. Oh, and did mention I was also in tech week for The Mystery of Edwin Drood at the same time? So I am really excited and grateful that I’ve been nominated for costume design for a non professional musical for the Broadway World regional awards!! If you’d like to vote, please vote, because I ended up super proud of this show!! Also a special shoutout to Corrinna for being my eyes when I couldn’t be at rehearsal, Cathy for distressing, and Sam, Robin, and Molly for helping me so much during the nine craziest days of my life. ❤️❤️❤️

Day 10 of the 10-day Performer/Artist Challenge. Every day, select an image from a day in the life of a Performer/Artist - a photo from a day you felt fierce or a memorable moment you've had during a performance/show, and post it without a single explanation, then nominate somebody to take the challenge. That’s 10 days, 10 Performance photos, 10 nominations and 0 explanations. Be active, be positive, be passionate... Raise Awareness of the Arts (okay there’s a lot of photos but I really love my little cellar gremlin) I nominate: okay who hasn’t done it yet?

Me, emotionally compromised after seeing Frozen 2. Also Shane’s face when he realized Weezer did an end credits song. (Don’t be fooled, though, he cried too)

Y’all, check your attics. I think someone has a portrait of me stashed somewhere.

I was tagged by Alliyah and Chloe!! Day 7 of the 10-day Performer/Artist Challenge. Every day, select an image from a day in the life of a Performer/Artist - a photo from a day you felt fierce or a memorable moment you've had during a performance/show, and post it without a single explanation, then nominate somebody to take the challenge.

Raise Awareness of the Arts I nominate: listen I don’t know who hasn’t been tagged but if you want to do this tell me and I’ll tag you and make a big deal about it. (Also this one gets a little bit of an explanation because Laney came across this review for Noises Off and sent it my way and it really made me so happy)

I may be taking a wee break from theatre, but y’all know me, I don’t know how to not be busy. This month I’m participating in National Novel Writing Month! I might have told some of y’all (only partially joking) that my dream has always been to become the American J.K. Rowling; some of y’all might even be some sweet friends who’ve stuck around since my fanfiction days. But I haven’t written in years- really, it’s been almost eleven years since I completed my first novel and shoved it in a drawer, never to see the light of day again. This year I’m trying. I wrote an outline, I filled in my #preptober2019 workbook religiously (lots of thanks to @nataliaaleigh for creating it!!) and I’ve made sure to take the time to write. I’m five days in, and this morning I broke 10,000 words. Is it perfect? No. Am I having a great time writing for the first time in years? Absolutely. I’ve even joined authortube and started making daily videos, and started posting on tumblr again. I don’t know where this book will go, but hopefully it won’t get locked in a drawer. #nanowrimo #nanowrimo2019 #nationalnovelwritingmonth #authortube #authortuber #authortubenewbie

Tonight ended our run of Evil Dead and my last night as this sweet little pun-screaming, blood spitting cellar gremlin. I am so lucky that I got to spend the past few months working on this show with so many amazing and talented people and I got to revisit my favorite role of all time. Maybe I’ll get to wear that blood spattered unicorn skirt again, but right now I’m just happy for such a great experience (and a little sad too). #evildeadthemusical #evildead2electricboogaloo #cherylinthecellar #cherylwilliams

“Come play with us, Ashley. Come play with us forever and ever and ever...” (@_justdilly_ and I wore our matching dresses on accident and we screamed and then this picture happened) #evildead2electricboogaloo
