Introduce yourself to our audience.
Hi! My name is Brooke Owens and I’m playing Tammy. I’m a 29 year old Gemini with ADHD and am just here for a good time. I have been in the Connecticut theater scene for a while. My most recent production was in “Sister Act” at Seven Angels Theater as the SHOW STOPPING, STUNNING, WONDERFUL Nun #2.
Why did you want to be involved in this production?
I love Duane and CTC so I thought it would be fun! Plus I can play the Ukulele which I thought could be useful!
Who in the show is most like their character?
Besides yourself, what celebrity would you like to see tackle your character?
What do you do when you’re not doing theatre?
When I’m not at my day job, I moonlight as a party princess! I often kick it with my girl Princess Anna and sometimes Belle. I also have a dog, Leia, who is my pride and joy. So I’m normally cuddling with her.
Without giving anything away, what’s your favorite line of dialogue?
“Even my hallucinations are running away!”
What’s your favorite Jimmy Buffett song, and why?
What sort of person is going to love this show?
Jimmy Buffet Fans, theater fans, comedy fans, basically anyone who enjoys fun! This show doesn’t take itself seriously which I think is something we really need right now 🙂
“Escape to Margaritaville” opens on September 12th and runs through September 21st at Connecticut Theatre Company. Tickets on sale now!

““License to Chill” is the right introduction to Margaritaville and the folks who call this island resort home.” — MARILYN STASIO of Variety
