Remembering Tracey D. Turner
Tracey first joined the SCSC family in 2017, performing as Old Sinbad in our production of The Seven Voyages of Sinbad. From then on, she remained an ever-present fixture in our company as an actor, director, and educator. As an actor, she also performed as Duke Frederick and Duke Senior in our virtual production of As You Like It, as Scrooge in our virtual A Christmas Carol, A Radio Drama, as Cerimon, Dionyza, Bawd, and others in Pericles, and as Lady Macbeth in Macbeth. As a director, she directed the reading of Martin Luther King Jr.’s Letter From the Birmingham Jail performed on the 50th anniversary of his death, the Pittsburgh premiere of Ginna Hoben’s one-woman comedy The Twelve Dates of Christmas, and the world premiere of Cole Vecchio’s adaptation of Dracula.
Tracey was an incomparable talent, both fierce and vulnerable at once, commanding the stage every moment she inhabited it while always bringing out the best in her scene partners as well as every actor she directed. She had a smile and a laugh that lit up the Earth and a beauty that defied measure. She was a friend to everyone she met, and to know her was to feel the warm embrace of her love long after leaving her presence. She was, to put it simply, joy in human form.
Our hearts go out to her vast circle of friends and loved ones in Pittsburgh and beyond, and especially to her daughter, Moriah, who was the greatest source of pride in her life. We are so extraordinarily blessed to have known Tracey and have her share her time and talents with us. We miss her terribly and will never forget her.
If you are so inclined, please consider donating to the GoFundMe campaign to cover her end-of-life care and funeral expenses, as well as to help send Moriah to college.
