Sandy also performed in Walmsley's classic, 'Something Red' and the World Premiere theatrical debut of Walmsley's 'The Nun's Vacation', which she had also produced and garnered rave reviews in addition to NOW Magazine's esteemed CRITICS PICK. Having completed a two-month run on stage at The Odyssey Theatre, Sandy was thrilled to be a part of the critically acclaimed cast/team of 'Fefu And Her Friends', where she portrayed the haunted Julia, in a wheelchair following a mysterious hunting accident.
