Career
Maggie Stables turned to acting as a second career after retiring from a longtime position as a French teacher. After some experience in musical theatre, she acted in a 1991 production of Jane Eyre with Nicholas Briggs. This led to Briggs casting Stables as Ruthley in The Sirens of Time and as Evelyn the following year. [1]
In 2013 Stables retired from acting due to long-term illness.[2]
