Amy Kim Waschke

Amy Kim Waschke was most recently seen at the Geffen Playhouse in their production of Revenge Song: A Vampire Cowboys Creation. The LA Times called her performance 'vibrantly dangerous' and applauded her 'theatrical ferocity.'

After graduate school she moved to New York where she worked regularly with the Vampire Cowboys Theatre Company, led by playwright Qui Nguyen (Disney's Raya and the Last Dragon) and director Robert Ross Parker.
