Donna Weinsting is living her dream. As a little girl she always knew she wanted to be an actor, and now she has worked with most of the professional theatres in St. Louis. Performances are exciting and gratifying but the rehearsal process and feeling a production come together is equally thrilling. Theatre has provided personal satisfaction and a plethora of creative, talented friends for which she is eternally grateful. Donna has been nominated twice for a Kevin Kline Award for outstanding lead actress in a play, 'night, Mother for Stray Dog Theatre and From Door to Door for New Jewish Theatre. She was thrilled to actually receive the Kevin Kline for her performance in From Door to Door in 2006.
