"Director Leigh Silverman has assembled a cast that is both racially and physically diverse (keep your eyes on ensemble member Jenna Bainbridge, who lights up the stage while making history as the first wheelchair user to originate a role at the Public.)"

-Entertainment Weekly

"This charming actress works hard to show the world that people with disabilities still deserve to be on stage – and she certainly showcases just how much talent she can bring. And with Bainbridge – that is a whole lot of talent."

-The Examiner

 

"The lovely Jenna Bainbridge makes for a quintessential Belle... From the start, Bainbridge radiates like the light from Lumiere's candlestick."

- The Denver Post

Fall 2023

Jenna will be appearing on NBC's new drama Found premiering this fall. 

January 2023

ConsultAbility, a new disability-inclusion consulting firm co-founded by Jenna Bainbridge and her husband, Paul, has officially launched. ConsultAbility aims to work with theatre companies and universities to assess their current access barriers for disabled artists, audiences, and staff by walking through their spaces and giving the theatre both short-term, inexpensive solutions, as well as long-term proposals for renovations. They also lead presentations and trainings on the importance of disability inclusion in theatre and the history of systemic ableism that currently exists in the theatre industrial complex. Their goal is to create a network of theatre companies and training programs where disabled artists can focus on their art without having to self advocate.
