LAUREL LYLE
Laurel Lyle
loves a good story. Whether it's sprawling with her daughters on a sleeping bag under the stars listening to
The Sally Lockhart Trilogy by flashlight, or dozing under the makeup table on a two show day of
A Streetcar Named Desire while Tammi Tappan (aka Stella) reads David Sedaris…being read to is one of her life's greatest pleasures. Laurel recently appeared in the world premiere of Doris Baisley's
One Day: Sarah House at Center Stage Theatre and has performed locally at the Rubicon Theatre in
The Diary of Anne Frank (Miep), Night of the Iguana (Miss Fellows), and
A Streetcar Named Desire (Eunice.) At the Ensemble Theatre she has been featured in
Humble Boy, A Lovely Sunday for Creve Coeur and Side Man (Independent Theatre Award.) Favorite roles at the Garvin Theatre include Ouisa in
Six Degrees of Separation, Lyssa in An American Daughter and Agnes in
Dancing at Lughnasa. Her feature film work includes Agnes of God,
The Morning After, Old Gringo and Stanley and Iris and she earned a Los Angeles EMMY AWARD for her work on public television. Laurel lives in Santa Barbara with her husband, David Hodges (the best reader in the world!)
