Hi! I’m Isabelle. I started Shakespeare on the Water in 2021 as a way to engage with my peers and develop a format for us to play together. It quickly turned into a beautiful project that happens annually on the Sausalito Waterfront. I hope to continue the rich tradition of the arts in our stunning landscape, following in the footsteps of the greats—Chris Hardman of Antenna Theater and the many mariner-creatives: Otis Redding, Maya Angelou, Agnes Varda —by inspiring, engaging, and nurturing young artists. My goal is to help them develop their storytelling abilities through the power of communication, mindfulness, and grounded creativity.

I am an actress, producer and educator from Mill Valley who graduated from Tam in 2010. I went on to receive my BFA in Acting from North Carolina School of the Arts, made theater in NYC and acted in the Transformer’s film Bumblebee! I currently teach part time at Tam, and work freelance modeling, acting, producing Shakespeare on the Water. I currently teach as a guest artist in the Drama Department at Tam High, and love the way engaging students in play activates the full brain - both left and right hemispheres - deepening a child’s empathy and creating a willingness to open up not only to one another in our work together, but outside the walls of the theater as well.
