Lynda Shadrake--actor, improviser, and everymom--is a Griffin Theatre ensemble member and has toured extensively with Griffin's  Letters Home and  Frindle. She appeared in their critically acclaimed productions of  For Services Rendered (Charlotte), directed by Robin Witt); Pocatello (Doris) and Balm in Gilead (Kay), both directed by Jonathan Berry.

She made her Steep Theatre debut last summer as Wendy in the Midwest premiere of Paris by Eboni Booth directed by Jonathan Berry.  She played Marty at Redtwist Theatre in Annie Baker's Circle Mirror Transformation directed by Scott Weinstein. With Oak Park Festival Theatre, she played Mrs. Eysnford-Hill in the  Jeff-recommended Pygmalion directed by Jason Gerace, and Miss Prism in The Importance of Being Earnest. 

Lynda was thrilled to have played two different moms in two different web series: The Adventures of Jacketman and seasons one and two of The Dreamers!  She played Hunter's mom in the award winning horror feature film, Hunter, directed by David Tarleton (available on Amazon and I-tunes). You can currently spot Lynda riding a Vespa for a Door Dash ad.
