Autumn and Rachel Read are identical twins who have identical ambitions for not only acting, but circus, stand-up, and modeling as well. Their twin abilities have been used as an advantage in such notable plays as Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing, where the pair took turns playing the goofy Dogberry. Their performance earned them an All Cast Award at Maine's Regional Theater Competition. Through the role of Narrator 2 in The Brother's Grimm Spectaculathon this pair of twins earned a special Judges' Commendation for Outstanding Tandem Physical Comedy. While comedic roles seem to be their typecast, serious plays like Hush Little Celia and Annie the Musical were hits for these two as well. Autumn was cast as Celia in Hush Little Celia and FDR in Annie. Rachel took on the more sleazy and despicable character Rooster, in Annie. These two also Co-directed Annie and choreographed/blocked all of the routines and scenes. They produced, directed, and acted in Erskine Academy's very first Mystery Dinner Theater; Café Murder. This Dynamic Duo has also tutored under performer Ethan Phillips: American actor and playwright. Ethan is best known for his television roles on Star Trek: Voyager (as Neelix) and Benson (as PR man Pete Downey). These twins have also trained with NECCA, the elite circus group in Vermont. They learned basic tricks from two person acrobatics to monkey roles on a German wheel. And it doesn't stop there. They have also learned parkour and circus art through the Pilobolus star Molly Gawler, who danced the lead in Pilobolus' internationally traveling tour "Shadowland". She's also made appearances on the Academy Awards, Oprah, Japanese television, and Late Night TV with Connan O'Brian. These two look-a-likes are always looking forward to new adventures, and if Melissa McCarthy ever needs twins to play her daughters, they're packed and ready to go! Hide
