History
Prior to 2009, Lacy's only experience with improv included watching Whose Line is it Anyway on TV as a kid and playing a random selection of improv games in a high-school theatre class. In 2009, Shana Merlin guest-lectured in one of Lacy's creative advertising classes. Two years later, after completing graduate school, Lacy finally had time to sign up for classes, and completed levels 101-601 at the Merlin Works Institute for Improvisation. In her first year of improvising, Lacy also took all of the other classes offered by Merlin Works, including Improv Singing 101-301 and several "Improv Labs." Lacy has also taken classes at The Hideout Theatre.
Since starting to improvise, Lacy has been cast in mainstage shows at The Hideout Theatre (Strange Worlds and TheatreSports), Coldtowne Theater (Sci-Fi Saturdays), The Institution Theater (Only Three Will Survive) and with Gnap! Theater Projects (The Professor: Improv Inspired by Doctor Who). Lacy has played in The Out of Bounds Comedy Festival, The Improvised Play Festival, and Improvaganza (in Hawaii). Lacy is an active member of RhinoDino and The Known Wizards, a Merlin Works teacher troupe.
Lacy is currently a teaching assistant for Merlin Works adult classes and The Hideout Theatre's teen classes.
