They were last seen eating bugs as Renfield in Dracula with SBMT, and are thrilled to be making their debut with the Pacifica Spindrift Players in this unique production of a classic story (personal favorite version: "The Muppet Christmas Carol"). Career highlights thus far: Death and the Artist (Death/SFBATCO), the SF premier of Trey Parker's Cannibal! The Musical(George Noon/TOOTCO), Stage Kiss(Kevin/TOOTCO), and A Few Good Men(Lt.

They currently perform as an improvisor with Synergy Theater's Student Performance Ensemble and teach youth theatre classes in Danville with I Can Do That Theatre Co. Benjamin would like to thank their wonderful family, and amazing partner, Gina, for their unending love and support. @BenjaminRafaelGarcia

She has studied theatre & dance since childhood, performed in more than 40 stage productions, and has worked as an artisan with numerous Bay Area and New York theater companies including Berkeley's California Shakespeare Theatre and SF Brava for Women in the Performing Arts. Her finest accomplishments are her love for Jesus Christ and her outstanding family: Paul, Chloe, Jude, & Kelly Orth.
J. Aaron Seymour (He/Him) (Friday, December 11)
lives in San Francisco and is a Bay Area native. At heart, he’s been a performer his entire life even as he masquerades as a Handyman/Woodworker. In recent years the call of theater became too much to resist. After taking classes at Studio A.C.T. he joined the cast of Twelve Chimes, It’s Midnight! (an old-time radio show drama podcast). He has also proudly been part of Recovery Works Theater productions including playing Ross in Macbeth. Although 2020 has been hard on so many, he feels remarkably fortunate to have been part of two Pacifica Spindrift Players’ Theater In The Woods productions (God Of Carnage and Three Sisters). Since Christmas and A Christmas Carol hold a special place in his heart, being given the opportunity to be a part of this production is a dream come true. Aaron would like to thank Doug & everyone at the PSP, Bill (and all his friends) and especially his wife Marci.
