Rupp left Massachusetts in 1979 to pursue an acting career in New York City. She frequently performed on stage and appeared in commercials before winning her first television role in 1980 as Sheila, a topless dancer, on the daytime drama All My Children. Earlier in the same year, Rupp played Helen, the wife of a cheating husband, in Sharon Tipsword’s one-act comedy Second Verse, produced as part of a play festival at New York’s Nat Horne Theater.
In early 1987, Rupp was featured in an article written by Enid Nemy for the “Broadway” section of The New York Times. Entitled “New York is beckoning, but first, Los Angeles”, the interview revealed how Rupp’s success in the theater so soon after her arrival in New York City had scared the young actress enough to take time off from acting for several years. After returning to the stage, Rupp explained, she was often cast as an ingénue, but after her portrayal of Cynthia in Chaos, she began getting calls to audition in Los Angeles for “really crazy neurotic” parts in television pilots. She was realistic about the unpredictability of an acting career, and since she had promised her mother she would never wait tables when she left for New York, she had not given up her part-time work as a bookkeeper and was “learning computers” as something to fall back on.
