"Even though the old laws of convention be broken: may we get a free
theatre where one has freedom for everything, except the freedom to lack
talent and be a hypocrite or a fool!"
-August Strindberg
1889

Dana Block*

Dana has done time on stages across the country
including Shakespeare Festivals of Kentucky, New Jersey, and San Francisco.
In her home town of Chicago she has a long list of
stage credits featuring classical, contemporary, and new experimental
work. She regularly performs her own original pieces at Chicago's
funkily prestigious "Abbie Hoffmann Died for our Sins" Festival.
Dana moved to Jamestown,
NY, 4 years ago, and made her Buffalo acting debut in the Irish
Classical Theatre Company's production of THE ACCIDENTAL DEATH OF AN
ANARCHIST. Since then she has performed with Theater of Youth, Torn
Space, and Buffalo Lab Theater.
With Subversive Theatre, Dana has performed in our
staged readings of BURY
THE DEAD (2005), WAITING

She is very pleased to at long last appear in a
full-scale Subversive production!
