Jim Maher (Performer) is currently performing in Central Park West in Fool Moon Theatre's Death Defying Acts.  He was last seen as Greg in Fool Moon Theatre's Sylvia.  Prior to that Jim portrayed the King in The King And I at The Ocean City Music Pier, and as Larry in the World Premier of Bill Grigg's When You Have No Class at The Gateway in Somers Point. He has also appeared as Sky Masterson in Guys And Dolls, as McMurphy in One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest and as Felix in The Odd Couple. He has recorded six albums of religious music, is a writer of songs he loves to perform, and visits Iowa City once a year to write poems and stories. He lives in Ocean View with Katie, his wife of twenty-eight years, and their beloved children.

Marcia Dunlap (Performer) is a South Jersey Theatre veteran who most recently performed as Kate in Fool Moon Theatre' Sylvia, as Anna in The King and I with the Ocean City Pops at the Ocean City Music Pier and as Nurse Ratched in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and in When You have No Class at the Gateway Playhouse.  With the Margate Little Theatre Ms. Dunlap performed numerous roles including Mable in Pirates of Penzance Sister Robert Ann in Nunsense, and Bobbi Michelle in The Last of the Red Hot Lovers.  She also performed the roles of Cecily Pidgeon in The Odd Couple and as Titania in A Mid Summer Night’s Dream. A professional singer, Marcia can be seen and heard with the Parlourtones, a quartet dedicated to music of the Victorian era.
Anne Christiansen (Performer) has performed in shows at South Jersey Regional
Theater, co-founded, performed and directed shows for ten seasons with Margate Little Theatre, and has come out of retirement to perform with Fool Moon Theatre.  Anne is a paraprofessional (no, really) and Braille transcriber at the Wm. Davies Middle School in Mays Landing, NJ.  Anne and husband Ken have two grown children, two Jack Russell Terriers, one cat and live in Egg Harbor Twp, NJ.
Geri Rizzo (Performer) starred in high school drama, always being cast as the flirt or naughty girl  in such scenarios as Dial M for Murder, The King and I, and as Barbara Streisand in “I Wish I Were a Kid Again” .  Therefore, she is quite glad to have matured to the point where she truly is a “kid again” so that she can finally be the character she really is. She discovered Gilbert and Sullivan in the aftermath (aftershock?) of raising two teenagers, where she played the lead in “Iolanthe” as  the Queen of the Fairies, and performed as a featured choral member  in “Pirates of Penzance” and “The Mikado”.   Her next acting tryst was in film in a featured group role in “Law and Order”, followed by  “Sex and the City” and most recently, a stewardess in “Seconds from Disaster”, a National Geographic documentary.  She also has done several local commercials and a voice over for the ACCC’s 2005 “Nutcracker” commercial, among other supporting roles.  She is thrilled to be involved with this wonderful theatre group, Fool Moon Theatre.  Geri is also an accomplished musician. See her website, www.geririzzo.com for more information.
