Karen Peakes

Karen Peakes (she/her) Karen is so pleased to be back at Gulfshore to perform in this beautiful new space! Karen was lucky enough to perform as Lizzie, in Maytag Virgin, with her husband, right smack in the middle of the pandemic, and Gulfshore will always hold a special place in her heart for being brave enough to make that happen. Other Gulfshore shows include, Steel Magnolias and Into The Breeches. She’s a Barrymore nominated actor, working primarily in Philadelphia, and has performed with the The Walnut, Arden, Wilma, InterAct, 1812, Act II Playhouse, Pennsylvania Shakespeare Festival, The Lantern, Delaware Theatre Company, and People’s Light. She’s also performed at The Folger, in DC, The Peterborough Players, in NH, and Santa Cruz Shakespeare, in CA. She’s a two-time Audie nominated audiobook narrator of over 80 titles, and proud mom to Owen. Love to Ian, and special thanks to dear Kristen and all the amazing folks at Gulfshore.
