in Heartbreak House, both directed by Jessica Kubzansky. Other Colony appearances

She is also a resident actor with Bottom's Dream, a more experimental theatre company. She has been seen there performing The Land of Fog and Whistles, a 50-minute Mac Wellman monologue, directed by Jim Martin, playing the ghost of the planet Pluto. She has also appeared in I Ought To Be In Pictures at the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts, directed by Jules Aaron. Bonita was the first recipient of the Natalie Schaeffer (Lovey Howell) Award, a lovely award/endowment for somewhat struggling character actresses in Los Angeles. Bonita has appeared on television
a lot lately, trying to guest on her dearest friends’ favorite shows (Enterprise,
Angel, Alias, etc.). In the fall, she will make a brief appearance
as an ancient, drunken motel manager in the film The House of Sand and
Fog. She has a husband and two cats. She is extremely fond of all of
them.
