Amanda Larsen
Position: Technical Chair
Dream Role: Ursula
Why I love Theatre: I have met so many amazing people that I would not have otherwise met!! As a stay at home mom, I didn’t get out much, and being involved in theater has enriched my life because of the fantastic people I’m surrounded by and the love and support they give me. ❤️
Why the arts are important: The arts inspire creativity, build self confidence, and allow you to view others and the would around you through different lenses. It allows you to express and feel emotions in a creative environment. Truly involving yourself in the arts means getting pushed out of your comfort zone, stripping away your defenses and insecurities and baring a vulnerable part of yourself to perfect strangers, and then recovering from it all, whether the result was positive or negative. It’s terrifying, exhilarating, and will change your life.

Why I love Theatre: Singing, dancing, acting, humor, love, storytelling, the adorable ensemble, what's not to love! I love getting together with people just like me to have a great time onand off the stage!
Why the arts are important: Life is hard. Life can be disappointing and sad. We need the arts to remind us of the beauty and joy found in life. If nothing else, the arts provide a distraction to the daily grind of life and leave us with a new perspective. People creating art is the most beautiful thing of all.

Why I love Theatre: its an escape from the real world around us. It lets us journey into another world and forget everything else that is troubling us. Also I love watching the audience light up as they enter into a magical world that is so new and exciting to them.
Why the arts are important: they teach us how to dream and make believe. It helps us be creative and helps our minds develop and grow. Ive learned some of the most important lessons in life be either participating in a show or watching a show.
Julie Johnson
Position: Education ChairDream Role: Mother Gothel
Why I love Theatre: I love the community that is created when you do a show together. You meet people that you may never have been friends with, and you work together for a short period of time, and when it is over you may never see them again, but you have a shared experience that will influence a part of you forever. There is nothing like the creative miracle of seeing a group of strangers come together as a cast and create something amazing that moves others.
Why the arts are important: Since I usually work with children, teens and in-betweens, I usually think of the arts in regards to an education perspective. Here are some of the things I think children learn from participating in theater: Reading and Comprehension, Public Speaking Skills, Critical and Quick Thinking, Problem Solving, Creativity, Collaboration, Memorizing, Multi-sensory processing, Coordination, Confidence.
