I’ll be back for three more plays in rep in Spring 2025!
Next Up - Lady Macbeth and more at American Shakespeare Center
It’s going to be quite the rep! We’ll be doing Macbeth, The Importance of Being Earnest, The Merry Wives of Windsor, and Dracula, A Comedy of Terrors this summer/fall at American Shakespeare Center in Staunton VA.
Thrilled to join this company for the first time and spend time in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley.
Next up: Carol in Laughter on the 23rd Floor
This amazing cast make me laugh every day! Come see us at Arrow Rock Lyceum, Aug 18-27.
Malvolia in Twelfth Night
In my fourth season at Great River Shakespeare Festival I got to play a dream role - Malvolia - and work with Beth Gardiner, long time collaborator and brilliant director.
The Cure at Troy at Quintessence Theatre
I loved returning to Quintessence to speak this glorious text by Seamus Heaney. As usual, Alex Burns directed a stunning production. Speaking in unison with my fellow Chorus members Eunice Akinola and Michael Liebhauser was a challenging, memorable and deeply rewarding experience.
The Tempest at GRSF
We had a magical season outdoors this summer at GRSF, as the sun set over the mighty Mississippi. What a joy to bring theatre back and tell stories together again. Photos by Sydney Swanson.

I would have been at Great River Shakespeare Festival right now rehearsing for Season 17, which has been postponed to 2021.

Three shows in rep at Great River Shakespeare Festival
I had a spectacular summer working at Great River Shakespeare Festival. Here's some of the characters I played and some fun videos I got to be a part of.
Next up: A Midsummer Night's Dream at GRSF
I'm thrilled to be making my Great River Shakespeare Festival debut this summer as Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream. Directed by the delightful and brilliant Beth Gardiner, it is sure to be a fun and wild ride. I’ll also be playing multiple roles in Shakespeare in Love, and Widow Capilet in All’s Well That Ends Well. It will be my first visit to Minnesota and I'm looking forward to spending time in the lovely city of Winona, on the banks of the Mississippi River.

A lovely review of The 39 Steps
We four are sweating up a storm at Cortland Repertory Theatre for one more week! I'm having a blast and my three brilliant cast mates are absolute magic every night.
We also had a lovely review from Syracuse.com:
"Gabriel plays the icy Hitchcock blonde with style and verve, showing as much leg as possible in an impossibly tight short skirt while maintaining dignity and modesty. An antidote to the summer movie blockbuster ... "The 39 Steps" is a reassuring return to the roots of theater: spare, simple and fun."
Here we are at opening with director Dustin Charles. I couldn't have asked for a finer team of delightful, talented folk.
L-R: Jason Shipman, Nicholas Wilder, Leah Gabriel, James Taylor Odom, Dustin Charles.
Next up - The 39 Steps!
Looking forward to teaming up with old friends this summer for epic fun times in The 39 Steps! Always a joy to return to Cortland Rep.
Mother Courage opens at Quintessence Theatre, runs through 11/6/16.
We had a grand opening weekend and are gearing up to begin our second week of performances.
