Cara is thrilled you are visiting her new website and reading her bio right now so she is currently trying to write something good for your consumption.

Cara just stepped out of the studio from recording her brand new demo featuring three of her own arrangements of Man Eater, Bi mir bist du schoen (which was originally a yiddish folk song, who knew?) and her grandpas favorite, My funny Valentine. Cara has traveled all over the world to perform; including playing Princess Diana in the Backstage Award winning �Divas� Off Broadway at the legendary Studio 54 in New York City, she received rave reviews in LA weekly for her role in the musical Dracula in Hollywood and was the lead singer on Carnival Cruise Lines� �Ecstasy� ship out of Galveston, Texas. She has also done many commercial voice-overs, including Disneyland, Knott�s Berry Farm, and Toyota. Cara was seen on NBC�s �The Singing Bee� and Bravo�s �Sheer Genius� which resulted in the rainbow bright hair that can be seen in the Photo Gallery of her new website.

Cara received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theater from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia where she performed at the Arden, Wilma, Merrriam, and The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts portraying the second nurse from the left in the world premiere musical �I�ll Be Seeing You�. She debuted her cabaret in NY at the legendary Don�t tell mama theatre and toured it to Los Angeles at the Wyndham Bellage hotel and the Whitefire Theatre.

Locally Cara has been seen at South Coast Repertory Theater, KCAL 9�s Hour of Power at the Crystal Cathedral and recently performend in the hit show, �Dancing Queen� on board the historic Queen Mary in Long Beach (Much easier to dance and sing on a ship that doesn�t move).

Cara is a member of The Actors Equity Association and The American Federation of Radio and Television Artists.
