How many Gibson Southern Theatre productions (including Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical) have you been a part of while in high school? I have been a part of 10 theater productions with 4 vaudevilles, 4 musicals, and 2 ITS regionals productions.

What is your favorite role, act, or show that you have been a part of in high school? Last year I auditioned with an act called Dev the Devious, and although it wasn’t the act I was planning on doing. That was by a long shot my favorite character I played.

Do you have a favorite story from your time spent in theatre? Every show since Sophomore year we have brought a speaker and jammed out in the boys dressing room. Usually you can hear it from the back hallway. Just being together and having a good time singing along to some classics.

What are your plans after high school? I plan to go to Vincennes University and become an Electrician.

What words of advice do you have for those thinking about joining Gibson Southern Theatre? Do it! If you are considering, just go for it, try it out. If you don’t like it then you don’t have to stay in it. But, at least give it a shot.

Do you have anything else to add? I want to thank my parents, especially my mom. For the first two years of theater she had to drop off and pick me up for rehearsal. She has always pushed me to do my best and be myself.
