“April Green lends She palpable, almost voracious insecurity, always looking around for some guidance or validation, which makes her initial audition a very funny whirlwind of overcompensation. All that also makes her a sucker for Asher Krohn’s brooding, sullen He, who’s as much a posturing overactor in life as onstage…the City Lights cast pulls it off with comic gusto…very funny “ - Sam Hurwitt, Mercury News (2020)

- an original play on longing, directed by Aleksandra Wolska

Over the course of three years, April worked in a rigorous performance laboratory environment with award-winning director, Aleksandra Wolska known for her work with Rainpan43 on All Wear Bowlers and with founders of the Pig Iron Theatre Company on Machines, machines, machines, machines. This journey resulted in producing an original collaboratively created multi-media theater event based on the question, “what creates walls of separation between us and what we need most?”. In performance styles from Vaudeville to Butoh, The Wall explored a dream-landscape of individual and collective longing. The Wall premiered in July 2012 in Santa Cruz, CA. and was selected as ‘Director's pick’ for the Santa Cruz Fringe Festival.

“April gave an electrifying performance….a physical theatre tour de force” - Robin Aronson, PhD Theatre Arts Instructor

For nine years April performed 90 minute unscripted plays with the Santa Cruz company Freefall Improvisational Theater to sold out audiences.

“April’s range of wit, emotional courage, and broad physicality has been a true inspiration to me. As primary leader in our improv company, Freefall Improvisational Theater, her passion for learning and sharing has taken the troupe to a whole new level. April is funny, bold and honest. She strives for hitting the edge, doing the unpredictable and taking material somewhere unexpected but ultimately gratifying. In scripted theater as well, she consistently stands out in the full embodiment of her character and in her capacity to maintain a sense of the ensemble, of the essential sense of the company as a whole” - Marian Oliker, perfomer
