Laura Warner

Laura Warner has become something of a regular in Dallas area theater arts over the past handful of years; appearing in Garland, Richardson, Addison, Plano and Irving in a variety of plays and musicals that include “To Kill A Mockingbird”, “Steel Magnolias”, “An American Daughter”, “All Shook Up”, “Oklahoma” and sundry others.With her children all grown up and on their own, Laura attests that acting is just the thing to keep her life fun-filled and hectic now that her nest is empty.

Laura would like to thank Cheryl Denson, Del Shores and Uptown Players for doing their part to “keep a crazy woman off the street”!
