  Shirley Decker (Director) -This is Shirley's third year directing for Port Summer Theatre. Like many Thespians, her passion for theatre started very young - acting out stories in the back yard with a clothes line for a curtain. "My first show was "The Whipping Boy," and I was the star - getting royally beaten with a stick every other scene." She performed all through school and beyond in many productions with lapses when getting married, raising children and establishing a career. She performed in "Can Can," "How to Succeed in Business," and "Pajama Game," to name a few. She decided at age 40 to finish college and major in Theatre, luckily for her, through the Professional Theatre Training Program in its first year at UWM. She taught Speech Communication, Forensics & Debate at Milwaukee Lutheran High School and directed plays, including "The Miracle Worker." Her recent performances, as an actor, have included "Barefoot in the Park," and "Plaza Suite," and this spring in 'Girls of the Garden Club" with the Cedarburg Players. She also directed "Pump Boys & Dinettes," and "Foiled Again" with the Players. Shirley was instrumental in the organization of the Cedarburg Players and served as the first President for 4 years and is still active with the group. |
