Cast Bios:
Penelope Cake is a longtime performance artist, choreographer, and dancer from NYC who uses original movement and the spoken word to create performance events. She primarily explores the space where life and art meet, where mind and body join, and how public and private realms interact. For a recent performance in Cape May, she was interviewed and mentored by Elizabeth Gilbert on her podcast, “Magic Lessons.” In 2018 she was the subject of an independent film by Liz Waldie that included both her choreography and poetry and was shown at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia. She currently teaches a program called “Creativity Lab” at Cape May City Elementary School for 3rd - 6th grade students which combines movement education and writing and is funded through a grant from The Center For Community Arts in Cape May. Penelope relocated to Cape May in 2011 and has taught numerous art workshops throughout the county since that time. For more information visit her website at PenelopeCake.com.
