CAST

Stephanie Doenges:  lead vocals/guitar/Disco Karen:  Disco Karen is the God of all Gods.  All other Gods revere her and look to her for wisdom.   Disco Karen says the least, and sings the most.   She was born in a burst of photons born of sound breaking its own barriers. She lives physically in the day, and ethereally in the evening, with full feeling and empathy for all of her past and future selves.  As a human, she is simply known as Stephanie Lee Kernes-Reaume-Batson-LaRonge-Doenges.   She is a multi instrumental classically trained musician and vocalist.  One time, she won a competition.  At another time, she was locally known as ‘The Singing EMT’ on youtube.  These days, she’s known as the lead singer and guitar player and flute player and harmonica player and uke player for Bread & Gravy.   She’s also known as an artist who paints mandala art paintings.  She’s also known as a sound tech, and runs sound for the Open Mic at the Field Hall, as well as for her own shows.  In the past, she was in local bands such as ‘Restless’, ‘Luck of the Draw’, and ‘Rolling Waters.’

Jess Doenges:  piano/God :  At 13 years old, Jess worked in a gas station.  13 years after that, he realized he wanted to learn to play the piano.  13 years after that, he started playing piano professionally.  13 years after that, he wrote this show.  In the midst of those years, Jess completely mastered spoken word, slam poetry, songwriting, poker, and fantasy football.  Playing God has been very humbling for him, as he always thought he was above such things.

Owl Chrysalis Medicine:  Narrator/Time Lord :  Owl Medicine is a multi instrumentalist and best selling trauma author and educator.  His music mirrors his writing in its unabashed and powerful approach to vulnerability.  He busked his way through England, France, Spain, and Scotland, but has found his forever home here on the Olympic Peninsula.  You can find him teaching workshops and performing his unique genre that he calls ’emotive acoustic’.

Justin Ridle:  random 1950s guy :  After years of annoying his parents with his nonstop vocals, Justin’s mother and father had the good sense to put Justin in a choir, and he has never looked back.  For two decades, Justin sang in theatre:  From opera to rock reviews.. From Australia to Disney World to the National Cathedral in D.C, he splattered the world with his beautiful and soulful voice.  These days, he sings on his farm, in his barn, on the river, with friends around campfires, and habitually hosts gatherings with many of the most talented and unique people on this planet.  His infectious spirit and genuine interest in lifting up those around him make him a person to know fondly.

Jesse Ahmann:  cellist/random 13th century human:   As a classically trained cellist, and having been surrounded by music all his life, Jesse has always dreamt of being a composer. He has since learned multiple instruments and frequently uses them in his compositions, realizing that dream, working as a film composer, meditative music writer, and successful YouTube musician. He loves to convey emotion, both in the undercurrents of his music and the melodies. He has performed as principal cellist for numerous symphonies across the Northwest, and also performed at Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center; additionally, he was a featured artist on National Public Radio’s (NPR’s) “All Things Considered.” His musical credits include performances throughout Europe, Asia, Central, and South America.   Locally, he performs with musical groups such as ‘The Ahmann Brothers’ and ‘Topia Vana’.   Jesse has also started playing standup bass with Bread & Gravy, and he’s already nearly as accomplished with it, as he is with the cello.  He has played in exotic places, such as Quilcene and Chimacum, in front of tens, if not dozens, of people.

Isabelle Rose:  keyboards/space person:  From a galaxy far far away in Los Angeles California. Isabelle Rose started her musical journey with keyboards in the year 1977.  She was 4 years old the first time she went to see Star wars! When she got home, she started playing on her dad’s keyboards and baby grand piano.  Since then, she has evolved in her playing of musical covers, as well as her original compositions, with inspiration from Duran Duran, ELO, Led Zeppelin, and Dream Theater.  For years, she’s been wowing local audiences with her extremely unique and highly entertaining one person show.

Jason Taylor:  bass player/random 1960s human:   Jason is a bass player and vocalist hailing from the Pacific Northwest whose eclectic musical influences are apparent through his playing, and is constantly working to push the boundaries of his musical understanding. He is most known for his playing with the band Bread & Gravy, and more recently for his time with Tuff Puffin. When not playing music, Jason can usually be found foraging or growing gourmet mushrooms.  Seriously.

Jerry Gilleland:  drummer/pirate from 1800s:   Jerry Gilleland, known to everyone as the kindest musician on the Olympic Peninsula, is a multi instrumentalist who has been playing drums since 1976.  He taught high school percussion and private lessons for 5 years.  He has been in roughly 100 bands and has played just about every musical style that exists.  He is nicknamed ‘lint’, because he is always ‘in the pocket’.  As a life highlight, he allegedly went to a raging party with Jerry Garcia’s dog walker.

Vienna Baron:  Harmony/Random Human: Vienna is one of the Harmony Honey Buns and has been singing with Bread and Gravy for a little over a year. She is a classically trained vocalist and attended Berkley College of Music in Boston, MA and Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA as a music major. She plays several different instruments, has her own band (Olympic Generations), and they have been together for over 15 years. Her musical influences are mostly classic country artists such as Glen Cambell, The Judds, and The Sons of the Pioneers. She also enjoys some of the tight harmonies from Motown and blue grass. While in high school and college, she has participated in musical theater and in multiple community choruses, singing different parts depending on the need: soprano, alto and/or tenor. She loves listening to a wide variety of music from classical to contemporary worship and pop music.  She loves performing and collaborating with other artists from our musical community.  Her favorite color is All of Them.

Kathy Corriel:  Harmony/Random Human:   Kathy is recently retired and a late bloomer in the local music scene, although she’s been singing harmony since before she knew what it was.  She grew up in a very musical family and would often sing along with songs from the 40s to the 70s (the ‘Wonder Years’ of music).   She has been a soprano in several worship bands from the age of 17, and also performed with Port Angeles Community Chorus in a production of ‘Handel’s Messiah’ and other classic operatic pieces.  Currently, she feels blessed to be part of the Bread & Gravy family and the thriving local music community.   She loves Art, Music, Cats, and PBJ sandwiches with cold milk.
