Maribeth McCarthy
Starlet?
"When I was in college, I was actually asked why I was in theater, because I was too fat for it." Maribeth McCarthy has told this story before, usually from a stage during rehearsal or back stage getting ready for a show. "That was when I was 50 pounds less than what I am now." McCarthy was the lead in a recent production of hairspray at the Academy Theatre and is currently playing half the lead role with her sister as Siamese twins in the Meadville Community Theatre production of Side Show. The Philly born actress/waitress says she is very happy with her life. 'Everyday I get to do the thing I love most, even waitressing is theatrical in a way. She feels the dinner theatre at the Riverside Inn is her second home and her favorite place to perform. "They are beautiful, accepting and talented as all get out people. I can be nothing but grateful to all the theatrical gods for being so kind and awesome." And by the way, when you see her, she is likely to call you darlin'.
