Mary Midiri-Davis

<p>Mary was involved with a number of Muni shows for over 20 years. Mary's involvement with the Muni began when she did make-up during the 1975 season. She made her Muni stage debut as Penelope Ann in <em>Bye Bye Birdie </em>in 1976. Mary was more of a dancer, so she often was in dancing roles such as in <em>The Desert Song </em>in 1977<em>, The Pajama Game </em>in 1979<em> </em>and <em>42nd Street </em>in 1988. Some of the roles Mary performed were Petra in <em>A Little Night Music </em>in 1981, Lola in <em>Damn Yankees! </em>in 1985, Tessie Tura in <em>Gypsy </em>in 1995 and Mrs. Medlock in <em>The Secret Garden </em>in 1997. Mary was also the choreographer for <em>South Pacific </em>in 1980 and the assistant director for <em>Camelot </em>in 1981. Mary is an English and drama teacher at St. Teresa High School in Decatur.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Want to get involved in this project? Email history@themuni.org.</p>
