Samantha is thrilled to return to San Francisco Playhouse to again play a naive daughter with an overbearing mother – as it was when she was last here as Rapunzel in Into the Woods. Other credits include Mary Patrick in Sister Act and understudying Anya in Anastasia (Woodminster Summer Musicals), understudying Maria in The Sound of Music (Hillbarn Theater), the ensemble of 9 to 5 (Ray of Light Theatre), Emma in The Prom (Foothill Music Theatre), and Mary Bennet in Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley (Altarena Playhouse). She earned her BFA in acting from Hofstra University. “Much love to my family and friends for their support. Extra thanks to Liam, who’s been looking forward to me playing Penny since before I auditioned.” samantha-rich.com
