Action and Horror Reel
“As a performer, I am always in service to the piece I am working on, listening for its heart beat and breath, creating opportunity for those harmonic moments where audience and actor touch like a finger on a violin string. I am also a driven educator, a passionate director, and a take-no-prisoners kind of person. These rivers of my life converge in my role as Artistic Director of Shearwater Productions.” – Holly Adams

What’s in Holly’s head today
Happy February! I’m feeling grateful that Punxsutawney Phil predicted an early spring, and just finished a week full of wonderful shows with Symphoria, the professional symphony of Syracuse, NY. Each concert was for children and included Flight of the Bumblebees, the William Tell Overture, and Peter and the Wolf!!! The shows were wonderful, the kids were amazing. A dream come true for this actor! We are beginning work on our next circus show, and I have started working on Pagliacci for the summer at the Glimmerglass!!! #luckyme
