MARY SIMON (Director/Mrs. Potter)  Mary has been involved with the various Conklin theatres since 1969. She assumed ownership and directing responsibilities in 1995. Over the many seasons Mary mentions Smoke on the Mountain, Cemetery Club, I Do, I Do, Guys & Dolls, Rumors, The Foreigner, Perfect Wedding and Nunsense as personal favorites. She most recently appeared as lounge singer Lanie in What the Rabbi Saw and as Tina Winslow in Here Lies Jeremy Troy.  She was seen last year as Helen in Bedside Manners, Ann in A Sting in the Tale, Jean in the hilarious Funny Money, Gloria in Everybody Loves Opal, and as Honey in The Mating Game. Mary is proud and happy to keep our founder's dream alive! "Don't play as if you've swallowed the metronome!"
