“Lindsay had more than simply an abundant talent; she had a huge heart”
– Des McAnuff, Artistic Director, Stratford Festival

Born and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, Lindsay has been singing and dancing for as long as she can remember. She knew from a very young age that she wanted to make a career in the entertainment industry, and with an abundance of talent and an unparalleled work ethic, Lindsay has made an indelible mark.

A graduate of the Music Theatre Program at Sheridan College, Lindsay jumped right into performing with a season at The Charlottetown Festival. Several regional shows followed before Lindsay was cast in the original Toronto production of Hairspray. Lindsay would complete her run with this company, before being asked to be part of the 1st U.S. National Tour, and an eventual stint in Hairpsray on Broadway.

Three seasons at The Stratford Festival, with a notable portrayal of Ado Annie in Oklahoma, led to again being beckoned to Toronto, where she was cast as Francine in the Toronto production of Jersey Boys.

Lindsay loves the business, and all of the people who work in it every day. After a courageous battle with cancer, Lindsay passed away on February 4, 2010. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.
