But When I am not on the stage I am running, hanging out with friends and family and working on my Frisbee skills. I want to give a spacial thanks to Mrs. Pond and Mrs. DeRienzo for putting so much work and effort into this production and making it what it is tonight.

So without further ado, Enjoy the show!

 Elena is beyond excited to perform as Milly in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers! Milly lets her sing her heart out, bring some sass to the stage, and whip a crew of backwoods brothers into shape (with style, of course). This makes her fourth Jubilate production, and every one has been such a fun joy in her life that has deepened her passion for performing and storytelling. When she’s not on stage, you can find her deep in a good book, wrangling snuggles from her favorite tiny humans (aka her niece and nephews), laughing till it hurts with her partners in crime Jolie & Kateri, or watching golden sunsets. She hopes you're laughing, tapping your toes, and leaving the theater tonight smiling from this heartwarming story!
