Arizona Theatre Company (ATC) has named Tucson-based stage manager Mollie Heil as its Resident Artist for the 2026/2027 season. The program, launched in 2024, offers a sustained, paid season of employment to an outstanding Arizona-based theatre artist. Heil will serve as stage manager for ATC's production of 'Little Shop of Horrors' and assistant stage manager for 'August Wilson's Gem of the Ocean,' while also taking part in community and educational activities. Heil has worked with ATC since 2018, progressing from intern to stage manager across more than 10 productions, and holds a BFA from Webster University's Sargent Conservatory of Theatre Arts.

The production marks Kate Mansi's ATC debut as Catherine and the return of longtime ATC artistic director David Ira Goldstein as director. The cast also includes Rishan Dhamija as Hal, Emma Childe Maltby as Claire, and Scott Lowell as Robert. The review commends the acting and staging while noting complaints about cold temperatures and dim lighting at the Tempe Center venue. The production runs through November 8, with tickets available via ATC's box office or website.

The project is part of a multi-year Circus Theatre Partnership between Upswing and the New Vic Theatre, and will inform a new touring production planned for summer 2027. Comments were provided by Upswing Artistic Director Vicki Dela Amedume and New Vic Head of Education Jill Rezzano.

Cumbrian actor Eireann Devlin discusses her role in The Farmer's Wife, which opened at Keswick's Theatre by the Lake.
