Wendy Labenow,
an actress and valued member of the Shoestring Theatre Company, passed away suddenly following surgery. Wendy and her family, husband Adam and son Alex were valued members of the Shoestring Theatre Company family.
They stayed with us through all the COVID challenges and traveled with the company for the premiere of The Frenchman in St. Paul, Virginia. Alex and Adam worked backstage while Wendy was on stage. To honor Wendy's memory and passion for acting, Shoestring Theatre Company will sponsor a seat in her name at the historic Lyric Theatre in St. Paul, Virginia -- the setting for The Frenchman.
