Secretary

S ue Scott arrived at Footlighters 15 years ago with her daughter, Abby, and husband, Danny, and quickly joined the ranks of devoted Footlighters volunteers.  Her initial roles were all performance related but since producing her husband’s original musical about community theater (“Places!”) she now spends most of her time behind the scenes as producer, front office team member, fundraiser and board member.  Sue created and produces Footlighters annual fundraiser “Broadway in Berwyn”.  In addition to other non-theater volunteer gigs, Sue works full time for SEI Investments.
