Superior Donuts Cast

James Campen:

Hello, I have been in some way, involved with theater now for over 20 years. Whether be on stage, or back stage. My biggest role so far was playing Lenny of Mice and Men at Brucemore. I greatly enjoy being on stage.

Bryce Jordan:

This is my rst ever play! I have been apart of two musicals and did show choir all throughout highschool. I plan on becoming a choreographer in the future for show choirs and other gigs. I don’t have a have a favorite donut because I don’t eat no nasty donuts ;)

Wes Kaufman:

After a few decades away from theater, I jumped back into the Thespian pool after retiring. After 38 years of acting as a professional engineer, I took on the role of the Dad for "Leaving Iowa" and then Inspector De'Ath in a "Hair Raising Halloween Happening" murder mystery. This is my rst performance with Rich Heritage Theatre of Cedar Rapids. Thanks to my wife Gina for her support, and exibility preparing for this production. You can add anything to make this more interesting. I acted in High School and did an occasional skit at church, but no commercial productions. Member of Thespian Society at South Tama County High School, 1981...

Favorite Donut: creme lled, chocolate covered long John

Duane Larson:

Duane Larson (Max) is vzvolnovannyy (that's "thrilled" in Russian) to reprise his role as Max in this wonderful show! You might recognize him from several stages throughout the corridor, from Anamosa to Iowa City and all points in between! He is also an award-winning playwright, who has had plays produced on many of those same stages! Thanks to the cast and crew and to you for coming to see us! Favorite donut: gotta go with a classic, the one and only glazed.

Christa McDonald:

Christa McDonald is excited to return to the stage in Superior Donuts with RHCR. Her previous credits include Hotlips Houlihan in MASH, Olga Beriosiva in The Pink Panther Strikes Again, and several other high school plays and musicals before life brie y cast her in other roles. Christa does improv all day, everyday in her work as an elementary school building secretary. She enjoys gardening, spending time with her 14-year-old son, and keeping up with her two dogs. She is grateful for the opportunity to be back in live theater and share the stage with this wonderful cast. My favorite donut is chocolate frosted cream- lled Bismark
