Amanda Snarski joined Summer Stage as an apprentice in 1995 and proudly performed in several "T-shirt shows" (among others) until 2001. Amanda participated in Mainstage, One Acts, Cabaret, Dance Troupe, and Shooting Stars and worked as a staff member in the box office from 2000-2003. She enthusiastically remembers her Summer Stage days, but somehow she forgets to mention that she played Wendy in a non-flying production of Peter Pan. She attended Wagner College in Staten Island. In 2014, Amanda re-joined the staff as an assistant director for Mainstage, coordinator for Director's Workshop, and eventually directed for Children's Theater in 2016. With nearly 20 years of experience as a teaching artist in the Philadelphia area, she now resides in Lancaster County where she continues to pursue her passion for theatre education at the Fulton Theatre.

It helps if you have an external microphone and headphones, but Apple earbuds work too; however, BlueTooth ones are not 100% reliable, so see if you can borrow wired ones.
