Dog Sees God Bios

A long time admirer of the theatre, this is Sasha’s first performance in a local production. When not acting, Sasha can be found in a courtroom, hot yoga studio, or taking her golden retriever boyfriend Alex Casady (Beethoveen) for long walks among the Aspens. Sasha dedicates her performance to anyone who has ever loved someone who suffers from alcoholism.

This is America's second production with Stargazer Collaborative Theatre, having previously made her debut in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. By day, she works in HR for Coconino County and runs her own Bookkeeping business. In her free time she is often found training and competing in Strongman! This play is especially close to her heart as it explores the depths of grief and shares an important message with the audience. She is beyond grateful for this community and for her friends who have been her biggest supporters in all her endeavors.

Hi everyone! My name is Jordan Galvan and this is my first Stargazer production and my first time back on stage in over 10 years. I love reading and dancing. I am so excited for you to watch this show! ENJOY!

I am from the Sacramento area in California, and I have resided in Flagstaff for over two years now. My passion for acting on stage comes from my High School theatre teacher, pushing me to perform in theatre productions. This is my first Stargazer show, and my 6th theatre production ever. I love entertainment and anything relating to juicy real life stories, that is why I am currently studying journalism. I would like to dedicate my performance to anyone who has also struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts.

Maryn Hart plays CB’s Sister in this production of Dog Sees God (Bert V. Royal). This is her first ever show, and though she has no prior experience with acting, she has always felt passionate towards the performing arts! Throughout her life, Maryn has been drawn to many creative pursuits and enjoys filling her time with a plethora of artistic and musical hobbies—including theatre! She is deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to work with this amazing cast and crew, and would like to thank her family and friends for their constant support.

Liv Scott, born and raised in Phoenix, is thrilled to reunite with Stargazer Collaborative Theatre for another moving project. Both onstage and behind the scenes, she has been active in theatre from a young age, with credits including Gypsy, The Theory of Relativity, and Cabaret. Liv also has a passion for Shakespeare, and was recognized as Arizona’s Runner-Up in the 2022 ESU National Shakespeare Competition. She is excited to embark on her senior year at NAU’s Honors College, where she is pursuing a B.S. in Psychological Sciences with a minor in Criminology & Criminal Justice.

DeLano Hays (Director): DeLano is one of the co-founders of Stargazer Collaborative Theatre. She is passionate about creating meaningful art that touches on taboo social issues, including mental health, gender and sexuality, grief, racism, abuse, and feminism. Her shows frequently showcase the power of the actor and the script, and often feature ambiguous scenic design and minimalist elements that allow the audience the chance to imagine a broader interpretation of the story. Directing credits include Gypsy (Stargazer), 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (Theatrikos), and Steel Magnolias (Theatrikos). If you see her around town walking her big ol’ Great Dane, feel free to stop her to say hi and ask about how you can participate as a volunteer with Stargazer!

​Alex Casady has been living in Flagstaff since 2017. An English educator at Flagstaff Arts & Leadership Academy, he somehow managed to avoid theatre while teaching it for nearly a decade. He finally discovered his love for the stage in 2024, playing Alan McCarthy Boys in the Band and as Polonius in Stargazer's production of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead earlier this year. He's thrilled and humbled to worked with Stargazer once more in Dog Sees God, alongside such an incredible cast and crew, as well as his amazing partner, Sasha.
