Celebrated Aerial Choreographer/Performer

MAM SMITH

Soars Over the Paper Mill Playhouse Stage in Carnival!

March 8 - April 9, 2006

( New York -- March 1, 2006) Though she's become one of the film industries most sought after female stunt-people, actress-singer-dancer-acrobat, Mam Smith, is finally returning to her first love, musical theater, in Paper Mill Playhouse's current production of Carnival!

Best known to theater audiences as the creator/aerial choreographer that created Jane Krakowski's now legendary entrance in the most recent Broadway production of Nine, Mam Smith has a vast resume of work in theater, television and film, but she usually doesn't get much time on the screen. Her work as one of the top female stunt women has allowed the camera to capture her demise on the opening scenes of CSI, Law and Order, etc. So she's even more thrilled that the current production of Carnival allows her to remain alive in order to make that curtain call a "back from the dead" experience.

Over a year prior to being contacted by the Broadway production team, Mam Smith had already created, from start to finish, an aerial performance piece choreographed to the song "Call From the Vatican" from the musical Nine as an audition and performance number for herself. Much later, when she received a phone call requesting that she work with Jane Krakowski on a number for a Broadway revival, it eventually dawned on her that all of the creative work was already done.

Since Jane Krakowski's acceptance speech on the Tony Awards show, thanking Mam Smith specifically for creating her Tony-winning number, Smith has received a flood of inquiries regarding her work. Now she's the entertainment industry's aerial choreographer of choice and her most recent credit was creating an aerial performance number for pop superstar Mariah Carey for her last national tour.
