Meet the Cast
Jack E. Chambers
Henry II, King of England
Jack is excited to get to take on this show, decades after falling in love with it. Jack has lived and performed in Nashville for over
30 years, working with Circle Players (most recently
in The Grapes Of Wrath), Nashville Rep, Nashville
Shakespeare Festival, Actors Bridge, Boiler Room
Theatre, The Darkhorse Theater, GroundWorks Theatre,
PlayHouse Nashville, ACT 1, Spaghetti Theatre, and
many others. He recently premiered his original
show Calendar as a co-production with Verge Theater
Company and appeared in the Nashville Symphony's
world premiere of The Jonah People; most recently
he starred in Dearest Pauline, based on actual letters
from a WWII physician to his wife in Nashville. Other
favorites include Byck in Assassins, Kerr in Chesa-
peake, The Old Man in A Christmas Story, Pastor Paul
in The Christians, and Shannon in Night of the Iguana.
Special thanks to friends and family for their support
and to Clay and this dear creative staff for helping me
make my Logan Roy dreams come true. Wassail!
Elizabeth Burrow
Alais Capet
Elizabeth is a graduate from The University of Mississippi with a BFA in Theatre and is so excited to be performing with Circle Players! Favorite credits include Cabaret (Sally Bowles), Little Women (Beth), and Footloose (Ariel). Elizabeth would like to thank her friends and family, including her parents, Victoria, Phillip, and Evan. All her love to Josh and Ash.
Jeffrey Luksik
Geoffrey
Jeffrey is thrilled to be making his Nashville theater debut with the Circle Players. He has performed across the theatrical spectrum, from opera to Shakespeare to musicals. Favorite past roles include Anthony Hope (Sweeney Todd), Buddy Fidler (City of Angels), Edward Rutledge (1776), Leporello (Don Giovanni), Reginald Bunthorne (Patience), Lancelot Gobbo (The Merchant of Venice), and Prince Gabriel III of Belgium’s Trainer’s Son
(Vinkensport). Jeffrey would like to remind the
audience that his character’s name is pronounced
like a normal, actual name and not like the name
of a certain tyrannical boy king featured on a hit
HBO drama.
Matt Stapleton
Philip Capet, King of France
Matt is excited to finally be on stage again, and for the first time with Circle Players, after a year away from theatre (playing a ton of D&D). A graduate of Trevecca
Nazarene University's theatre program, he has been
overwhelmed by the wonderful people he has met
and the opportunities to play a range of characters.
His favorites include Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit, John
Caleo in Holding the Man, Edward Ferrars in Sense &
Sensibility, Daniel Pontipee in Seven Brides for Seven
Brothers, and Professor Bhaer in Little Women.
Kay Ayers
Eleanor of Aquitaine
Kay is thrilled to be returning to Circle Players after a
very long hiatus from her “home”. She has become
a staple in Nashville's theatre scene for decades. And
on the anniversary of her first show in Nashville is
excited to come back to where it all started, Circle
Players! Kay is a graduate of Millikin University's
theatre program and has graced most of Nashville's
stages at some point. Kay has also been featured in
regional films and national voice-overs, including
Veggie Tales. She would like to thank Michael for
being her partner in crime and biggest supporter!
Sawyer Latham
Richard Lionheart
Sawyer is thrilled to be on the Circle Players stage again,
and for the opportunity to live out his cool knight
dreams. He enjoys long walks in the park, high
seas piracy, and driving race cars. Find out more
about him, and the latter, at @Sawyer_Latham and
@Sawyer_Latham_Racing on Instagram.
Enjoy the show!
Ezra High
John
Ezra is so excited to be back with Circle Players! Favorite credits include Urinetown (Billy Boy Bill) with Circle Players, Twelfth Night (Sir Andrew) with Inebriated Shakespeare, and Peter and the Starcatcher (Peter) with Circle Players.
