Lily Zubis-Tanona has been in the theatre scene from a young age. Whether performing ancient Greek mythology plays with her homeschool drama group—Perseus (2009) and What’s Up, Icarus? (2013) at the Hudson Village Theatre—taking many hours of improv classes, or working behind the scenes, she’s always loved the stage. During her time in the ALC program and professional theatre at John Abbott, she built set pieces, worked as an ASM, and performed as a magician in Pippin (2017). Other ASM work includes Almost, Maine (2018) and ANON(ymous) (2019). Lily wears many hats as a performer, set builder, and backstage hand—balancing it all with a bit of magic!
Jean-Frédéric would like to take the time to thank the cast & crew and all patrons of the theatre, for their love and dedication to the arts! Having had the chance to take part in a number of the Hudson Players Club productions such as One Flew Over the Coo Coo’s Nest (Scanlon), META award winning Balconville (Gaetan Bolduc), Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night (Sir Andrew), Much Ado About Nothing (The Priest), The Tempest (Antonio) and a multitude of Hudson Village Theatre’s Holiday Pantomimes, most recently as Drizella in Cinderella, it is with utmost pleasure that Jean-Frédéric embraces the challenge and opportunity of taking on the role of Felix Geisel.
