Lured by the promise of applause and free snacks, Lauren is making her stage debut after working behind the scenes last year. A lifelong fan of theater (mostly from the safety of the audience) she's thrilled to finally put her penchant for dramatic overreactions to good use. Armed with zero experience, but plenty of enthusiasm, she's prepared to fake it till she makes it- or at least until intermission. She'd like to thank her family and friends, especially Neel Patrick, and she kindly asks the audience to laugh- even if it's out of sympathy.
