Sarah
Burley - Nicole
Sarah is acting because her father (a Yorkshireman) thought
she needed to toughen up. It was either acting or shoveling
horse manure. Since there are no horses and carts in Sheffield
any more she thought: "An actor's life for me!"
and moved to Denver where she could get drunk really cheaply.
Her family is scattered across the globe (no, not dismembered
or anything) so her fellow thespians are like her surrogate
family. They aren't forcing her into manual labour so it's
working out wonderfully. They did ask her if she'd go back
to working at le central so they could procure some authentic
croustade de champignons for the production, but to that
she screamed: "Go and upstage yourself!"
