So what's the deal with this whole Tour Noir?

Generally, a sightseeing tour will take you around a fair city, show you the sights, and sprinkle in some worthwhile facts and decent jokes. Tour Noir is different. With Tour Noir: A Dame to Guide For, our lovely audiences get to experience what we've dubbed sightseeing theater. Here the history and culture of lower Manhattan is mixed with an original, and frankly hilarious film noir play to provide something off the beaten tourist trap. Instead of simply hearing a bunch of dry facts, enjoy watching and participating in the tale of two ex-lovers bickering and bantering their way through winding streets and towering structures while learning what New York City is all about.

Jason Thompson (Tour Guide/Creator) - Figured that getting a NYC sightseeing license combined with taking people around New York City while getting slapped by a femme fatale was better than getting a real job. The verdict's still out on whether he was right.

Robyn Belt (Veronica) - A New York City resident for three years, Robyn still verifies subway directions several times before going cross-borough. A member of Marvel Comics' Sales team, she writes (www.marvel.com/comics/discover), edits copy and boosts morale by being a "Whoo, Happy Friday" person.

Raina Silver (Veronica), in a spectacular display of unfortunate timing, graduated with a BFA in theatre (NYU Tisch: Stella Adler, Stonestreet) during a pandemic that shut down Broadway. Other recent roles include Deborah in Age of Bees and Marina in Pericles. Raina is thrilled to combine her love of history, walking, and femme fatales, and hopes you have a grand time on your tour. rainasilver.com

Susanna White (Veronica) - Has been studying voice for over 11 years, and it has always been a deep passion of hers. She has been a part of the UK Opera Theatre productions like Sweeney Todd and recently premiered the role of “Sabrina” in Bounce produced by Ardea Arts. She hopes to be a positive influence in the performing arts worlds not only through her work, but through her heart for loving others.

Daniela Cervetti (Veronica) rejoined the world of performing arts in 2018, having since appeared in Joe DiNozzi’s “A Sketch of New York”, a handful of student & indie films, and the ruthlessly immersive Westchester-based haunt known as Hudson Horrors. She’s also a recent Playwright who directed, produced and co-starred in her original stage play “Betty & Bogie”, which premiered at Hudson Guild Theatre as part of NY Winterfest 2019.

Reese Michelle (Veronica) graduated with a BA in Theatre and moved to NYC in the midst of the pandemic, which means that she is still trying to grasp the concept of the subway running 24 hours a day. Recent stage credits include The Crucible, The Taming of the Shrew, and Sense and Sensibility.
