Tales of the . . . Cast! Meet Betsy Wolfe
Meet Betsy Wolfe, our Mary Ann Singleton. Click here to read her official bio.
Check back next week to meet another member of the cast of Armistead Maupin’s Tales of the City: A New Musical!
NAME Betsy Wolfe.
CHARACTER Mary Ann Singleton.
HOMETOWN Visalia, California.
FIRST THEATER EXPERIENCE At ten I played Kenickie in my church’s basement production of Grease, and Artful Dodger in Oliver! the following year. Apparently I played smooth-talking boys really well.
FAVORITE THEATER EXPERIENCE Having the rain pour down on me at the end of Act II in 110 in the Shade. It was freeing, healing, and my first time on Broadway.
FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH TALES Two years ago the casting director for Tales of the City came up to me at an opening night party and said, “There is this part that is perfect for you, but no one knows who the hell you are. You read the books and I’ll get you in the room.”
HOW ARE YOU LIKE MARY ANN? Let me count the ways . . . BUT I will say I’ve never dated a child molester.
FAVORITE MUSICAL Into the Woods.
FAVORITE SONG TO SING “Colors of the Wind.” My two-year-old niece is obsessed with Pocahontas. And it makes me the “favorite” when I sing it!
EDUCATION B.F.A. in musical theater from the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music (CCM).
PERFORMANCE RITUAL The cucumber gimlet from Bourbon and Branch is delicious and will need to be a ritual while in San Francisco.
FAVORITE ’70s WARDROBE ITEM I have no clue, but I’m sure I’ll be wearing them all during the show!

We saw the preview last night and loved it...especially Betsy. However, Betsy, you've got to ask the ACT to give you a better wig...you deserve it!!!
Saw the matinee today... thought it was absolutely phenomenal. I mean, seriously outstanding art... and this comes from a musician who's never been crazy about musical theater as a genre.
I grew up with Betsy at church in Visalia and feel pretty confident to say that this is the best thing I've ever seen her do, besides all that embarrassing shit in the worship band at the Presbyterian services, of course *sardonic laughter*
