Imminent Danger at Indy Fringe 2024
Meet the Creative Team
Starring as “Melissa”
Heather Bartram
Heather Bartram is thrilled to return to the Indy Fringe Festival! A true highlight of her summer, each year she looks forward to seeing what creative scripts and projects her friends and peers have cooked up! Heather is a veteran of both stage and screen.
Recently she’s been working in television but always returns to her first true love: the stage! Treading the boards always feels a little like coming home!
She would like to thank friends and family for all the love and support. It would be impossible to make everything happen without that cheerleading squad. When she’s not working hard she’s hardly working, hosting trivia at Chatham Tap on Mass Ave. every Monday.
Director
Kate Hinman
Kate Hinman is pleased to be working again with Dr. Jan L. Eira on bringing one of his scripts to life for Fringe. It has been a few years since she has participated and she is looking forward to seeing all the fabulous theatre peeps who are showcasing the talent for playwriting, acting and all the efforts to produce shows, that Indianapolis has to offer.
Much thanks to Heather for taking on this role when there were unforeseen changes made.
Happy Fringe-ing to All.
Playwright
Dr. L. Jan Eira
Louis Janeira, pen name L. Jan Eira, is a medical doctor who was born in Portugal (Europe). His family immigrated to the US when he was 15. He pursued his first dream of becoming a physician and now works as a cardiologist at St. Francis Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Given his lifelong love of the performing arts, he is now pursuing his second dream of becoming a playwright. His writing began in 2010, when he commuted 3.5 to 4 hours to work between Zionsville and Terre Haute, Indiana. He hired a driver allowing him to sit in the back seat with what he called “Me Time.”
He put that time to good use writing and publishing medical murder mystery and thriller novels then plays. His plays have been staged in central Indiana and elsewhere. He is most proud of a contest he won where one of his plays was staged Off-Off Broadway.
