CAST

BENJAMIN ASH

BENJAMIN ASH

Peter

Benjamin Ash (Boy/Peter) is thrilled to join the cast of Peter and the Starcatcher with Four Seasons. Recent credits include Dmitry (Anastasia) and Billy (Bright Star) at Draper Historic Theater and the League (Scarlet Pimpernel) and Conquistador Ancestor (The Addams Family) with Music Theatre West. After this, he’ll be playing Terpsichore and Sonny’s understudy in West Valley Theatre’s production of Xanadu. A lifelong singer and dancer, he has enjoyed expanding his acting skills since returning to theatre in 2024 (shout out to Mike Romney for his help!). By profession, he is a Master Arborist through the ISA and founder of Fraxinus Pursuits, a tree and landscape consulting company. Because of his love of friends and games, he is currently assisting his platonic partner, Todd Partridge, in kickstarting his social deduction card game Full Moon (check it out. It’s awesome)! He is so grateful to all his family and friends for their unwavering support of his artistic pursuits and crazy life journey. He looks forward to continuing to share meaningful and ridiculous theatrical experiences across the Intermountain West to brighten our wonderful communities.

Grace COLVIN

Grace COLVIN

Molly

Grace Colvin is beyond thrilled to make her Four Seasons Theater Company debut in her favorite show! Past credits include Spiker in James and the Giant Peach (Herriman Arts Council), Ms. Norbury in Mean Girls (Sandy Arts Guild), Albienne in This Girl Laughs, This Girl Cries, This Girl Does Nothing (Bingham High School), and Milky White in Into the Woods (Bingham High School). She is currently a sophomore in Utah State University’s BFA Theatre Education program and hopes to become a middle school teacher post-graduation. Grace extends a huge amount of gratitude to her remarkable castmates and production team for taking this journey with her, her wonderful family and friends for their support, and especially her mom for inspiring her lifelong obsession with Peter Pan. See you aboard The Neverland!

Brad Rasmussen

Brad Rasmussen

Stache

Hi I’m Brad. After years of enjoying 4 Seasons shows, I’m grateful to finally join the company on stage. I’d like to thank my 4 kids and especially thank my wife, Breanne, for supporting me in my efforts to share the few skills I have with others. I love you babe! If you want to see more of me on the stage, please support me through venmo: @bradras92

DANIELLE ISRAELSEN

DANIELLE ISRAELSEN

Prentiss

Danielle Israelsen is so excited to be back on the Four Seasons stage for Peter and the Starcatcher! This is Danielle’s first ever straight play, and first ever British role (yay!!). She loves the story of Peter Pan and is so excited to share the story leading up to the infamous tale. Some of her recent credits include Matilda (The Acrobat/Big Kid, Four Seasons), Narnia (Wolf Army, Illume Dance), and Mamma Mia! (Sophie Sheridan, Four Seasons). Danielle wants to thank the incredible production team for bringing this hilarious story to life; to the friends and fellow cast members for their constant love, and laughs, and especially to her brother Andrew for always being willing to talk in accents with her whenever she pleases. Thank you!

BETHANY POTTS

BETHANY POTTS

Ted

Bethany Potts is currently a social work student at USU. She is delighted to be a part of this play with such a wonderful cast, crew, and production team! When not studying or lurking backstage, she enjoys games with family, Dungeons and Dragons with friends, and practicing archery in the  backyard. She also loves being the favorite auntie and spoiling her nieces and nephew. Many thanks to all and hope you enjoy the show!

Todd Partridge

Todd Partridge

Smee

Todd Partridge is eager to swab the decks as Black Stache’s utterly devoted first mate, even if it means disguising himself as a poor excuse for a mermaid now and then. After a 12-year hiatus from the stage (blame the pursuit of a Ph.D. in statistics), he dove back into the theatrical seas last year and isn’t looking back—unless it’s to check for ticking crocodiles. By day, he’s a lecturer in statistics and data science at Utah State University, where he crunches numbers with the same precision Smee applies to following orders. Recent credits include Donkey in Shrek: The Musical, a dashing member of the League in The Scarlet Pimpernel, and the delightfully macabre Uncle Fester in The Addams Family. Todd adores his supportive wife Tiana, with whom every day feels like a grand adventure (no starstuff required), and loves sharing the stage with his quasiplatonic partner Ben, who’s nailing Peter in this production—talk about perfect casting for boyish rebellion! When not teaching, performing, or plotting mischief, Todd is gearing up to launch his new moderator-free, eyes-wide-open Werewolf game “Full Moon” via Kickstarter this summer.

CHRISTIAN LIPPERT

CHRISTIAN LIPPERT

Lord Aster

It’s been 14 years since Christian last performed on stage (if that shows, just be a pal and don’t say anything. Loose lips sink ships). In those far-gone, pre-adult days he relished being part of Weber High School’s productions company and honing his highbrow acting chops in sundry scout camp skits. Christian has missed the comic, creative chaos of theater, especially how you can start singing a song or quoting a movie and have 98% confidence the people around you will pick it up. It has been a delight for him to join Four Season’s Starcatchers. Many thanks to the cast and community for a warm and encouraging welcome!
