Leah is portraying Cecile in our production of Annie, and you'll also see her showcasing her incredible dancing talents as a featured dancer and member of our ensemble!⁣
⁣
Here's a fun fact about Leah: Her journey with Evolve Theatrics began in 2018, when she appeared as one of the orphans in our previous production of Annie! Since then, Leah has grown up as part of the Evolve family, appearing in numerous productions, including The Music Man, The Sound of Music, Frozen, and Mary Poppins. It has been such a pleasure watching her grow and develop into the accomplished performer she is today.⁣
⁣
More recently, Leah has taken on a new role with Evolve, joining our production team as one of our choreographers! Her creativity, musicality, and exceptional dance skills have made her a wonderful addition to the team. And when she isn't performing onstage or creating choreography for our productions, you might find her competing on the ballroom dance floor, where she is known for her stunning performances!⁣
⁣
But Leah's talents extend well beyond the theater. She is also an outstanding student, currently in her junior year of college pursuing a pre-medical education. Balancing the demands of a challenging academic program with rehearsals, choreography, and competitive dance is no small accomplishment!⁣
⁣
With her intelligence, compassion, creativity, and remarkable attention to detail, we have no doubt Leah has a bright future ahead of her. We are confident she will make an exceptional doctor someday. And who knows? Perhaps she'll even brighten a patient's day with an impromptu tap dance!⁣
⁣
We are incredibly proud of Leah and grateful that she continues to share her talents with the Evolve family. Watching a young performer grow from an orphan in Annie into a talented adult performer and choreographer is one of the greatest joys of community theater.⁣

Summer is a member of our adult ensemble in Annie, and we are delighted to welcome her back to the Evolve Theatrics stage! This is Summer’s third production with Evolve, having previously appeared in The Sound of Music and Frozen. In addition to sharing her talents onstage, Summer serves as a member of our Board of Directors.⁣
⁣
Summer is one of those wonderfully creative and talented individuals whose contributions extend far beyond performing. She directs a local children’s choir, sharing her love of music and helping young performers discover their own talents. She is also incredibly gifted behind the scenes! Audiences who attended our production of Frozen may remember the wonderful Olaf and Sven puppets. Those delightful creations were brought to life through Summer’s creativity, imagination, and craftsmanship!⁣
⁣
As if all of that weren't enough, Summer is also a busy and devoted mom who is actively involved in her children's sports, band, and school activities. With so many commitments, we sometimes wonder how she manages to fit everything into her schedule!⁣
⁣
What makes Summer especially wonderful is her willingness to share her time, talents, and creativity with others. Whether she's performing onstage, contributing behind the scenes, or supporting the organization as a Board member, she brings enthusiasm, dedication, and a genuine love for the arts to everything she does.⁣
⁣
We are incredibly grateful that Summer continues to make time for Evolve Theatrics. She is a valued member of our Evolve family, and we are so fortunate to have her!⁣

Come see Summer and the rest of our talented cast in Annie!

Marti is a member of our ensemble, and this is her first production with Evolve Theatrics! After watching her daughter perform in our production of Frozen, Marti decided it was time to get involved herself! This time, she is sharing the stage with another daughter, Kaitlyn, making this production a true family experience!⁣
⁣
Marti has been a wonderful addition to our cast and the Evolve family. Her enthusiasm for performing and genuine enjoyment of the rehearsal process have been evident from the beginning. She has embraced the opportunity to take on a variety of roles, demonstrating her versatility as she transforms from a servant in the Warbucks mansion to a downtrodden resident of Hooverville, and then to a fashionable New Yorker enjoying the excitement of the big city!⁣
⁣
One of the joys of community theater is watching people discover new opportunities to express themselves, build friendships, and share experiences with family members. Marti has embraced all of these opportunities, bringing a positive attitude and a willingness to jump into whatever the production requires.⁣
⁣
We are thrilled that Marti decided to step onto the stage and become part of our Evolve family! We hope this is just the first of many productions with us.⁣

⁣
Tom is playing the role of Daddy Warbucks! This is his first production with Evolve Theatrics and this production also marks his return to the stage after a 39 year hiatus. Oh, what a return it is!! We were so fortunate to find someone with Tom’s talent and beautiful voice. ⁣
⁣
Tom strives to be the very best he can possibly be in the role of Warbucks. He consistently asks for feedback and is continually evolving in the role. Despite the working full time, undertaking the load of a principal role, he is always the first to volunteer to help behind the scenes. He has helped with the load in to the performance venue, lighting, and setting up prop tables. ⁣
⁣
Did we mention that Tom is also a talented pianist and organist? Also, from what we have learned he got many of his musical talents from his father who was also a gifted performer. It is a pleasure to work with Tom and we know are audiences will be equally pleased with watching him perform the role of Daddy Warbucks. ⁣

Meet Kaitlyn!⁣
⁣
Kaitlyn is portraying Annette in Evolve Theatrics’ production of Annie! This is her first production with Evolve Theatrics, and we are delighted to welcome her to our theater family! After watching her sister perform in our production of Frozen, Kaitlyn decided it was time to join in the fun herself, and we are so happy she made that decision!⁣
⁣
Outside of rehearsals, Kaitlyn works full-time and is a busy mom to two young children. She brings those wonderful motherly instincts to our rehearsals, always keeping an eye out for ways she can lend a hand. Whether she is helping set up prop tables, working through set changes, or assisting wherever an extra pair of hands is needed, Kaitlyn is always willing to jump in. She is a dedicated performer who comes ready to work, gives her best effort at every rehearsal, and is consistently encouraging and supportive of her fellow cast members.⁣
⁣
Kaitlyn is also sharing the stage with her mother, Marti, making this the third member of their family to perform with Evolve Theatrics! Now we're beginning to wonder if there are even more talented family members waiting in the wings. If so, we'll have to make sure they know when our next auditions are happening!⁣

Mollie is portraying Mrs. Greer and is also a member of the ensemble in Evolve Theatrics’ production of Annie! This is her second production with Evolve Theatrics, and our audiences may remember her as Miss Lark in Mary Poppins. This time around, Mollie has received an upgrade in dog handling, going from a stuffed dog in Mary Poppins to a real dog in Annie!⁣
⁣
Mollie is one of those wonderful cast members who quietly observes what is happening around her, always looking for ways she can help both onstage and behind the scenes. In addition to arriving prepared and ready to work at every rehearsal, she has helped source props and set pieces for this production. She is thoughtful, dependable, and always willing to jump in and lend a hand wherever she is needed.⁣
⁣
For Mollie, Annie is also another opportunity to share the stage with her husband, Scot, and their daughters, Maddi and Callie! All four members of this talented family previously appeared together in Mary Poppins, and we couldn't be happier to have the entire family back for another production. There is something especially wonderful about families making theater memories together, and we love that Evolve Theatrics gets to be part of theirs!⁣

⁣
This is Scot’s third production with Evolve Theatrics! Our audiences may remember him as the Park Keeper in Mary Poppins or as the unforgettable Mary Sunshine in Chicago. Sadly, Scot won’t be sporting his custom heels or fabulous dress from Chicago this time around, but he will be bringing his wonderful comedic timing and signature deadpan humor to the roles of Bundles and Sound Guy in Annie!⁣
⁣
Scot is an incredibly versatile performer who brings something unique to every character he portrays. He is also a true team player, and we love watching him develop his characters and find those little comedic moments that make his performances so entertaining.⁣
⁣
Once again, Scot is sharing the stage with his wife, Mollie, and their daughters, Callie and Maddi! All four previously appeared together in our production of Mary Poppins, and we love having the entire family back with us for Annie.⁣
⁣
We are thrilled to have Scot as part of the Evolve family and can't wait for audiences to enjoy his performances!⁣

Nicole is known for her engaging stage presence and her ability to truly live in each moment onstage. Whether she is singing, dancing, or stepping into one of her many characters, she brings energy and authenticity to every scene.⁣
