Brooke Burns in The Salon in Theaters Today!!

IMTA alum Brooke Burns has a new comedy film opening this Friday, The Salon. The Salon is a sassy and heart-warming film for the entire family and Brooke plays a character named Tami. It is about a neighborhood beauty salon which the Department of Water and Power is forcing to close due to eminent domain. The owner, workers and community all unite to battle the huge corporate giant and it turns out to be a hilarious and uplifting story.

Brooke attended IMTA in 1994 in Los Angeles. After pursuing a modeling career, Burns found her niche on television, appearing on shows such as A Nero Wolfe Mystery, Ally McBeal, Baywatch, North Shore and Pepper Dennis. She also hosted the game show/reality show hybrid, Dog Eat Dog. Brooke is currently filming Miss/Guided a comedy centered on a woman who returns to her high school alma mater to become a guidance counselor and the people she works with. This show was created by Ashton Kutcher, another IMTA alum , and his film company Katalyst Films . If you can't get into the theaters on Friday, catch an encore episode of Brooke on the First Celebrity Fear Factor May 11 on the FX channel!
