Effable mission statement

Kimberly Kaye is a writer, journalist and overly verbose New Jersey native. A graduate of Wagner College, she was the 2005 recipient of the Bowies Award for Creative Writing and a 2006 semifinalist in the Strawberry One Act Festival. She is currently a senior reporter for Broadway.com. Kimberly interviewed Meryl Streep one time, which was really, really, really cool.

Meredith Ryan Packer is a New England transplant who graduated from Wagner College in 2005. In 2006, she co-founded Amersterdam Artists, LTD with whom she helped produce & direct two successful productions before parting ways in 2008. She is a co-founder of Effable Arts.

Brad Landers holds a BA in musical theater performance from Wagner College.  After graduating in 2005, Brad went on to perform in numerous regional productions (Fiddler on the Roof, A Chorus Line…) as well as help to maintain the original choreography of the national tour of Cats as dance captain/swing, presented by Troika Entertainment.  When Brad is not dancing other people’s choreography he likes to create his own dance works and is fueled by the passion to create above all else.  Due to a high sense of self-criticism and stubbornness, Brad feels bound and determined to be known for his choreographic art…someday soon.  Until then, keep on the lookout for his work through Effable Arts and the country!
