Graduating Senior Headed to New York City

Congratulations to graduating senior, Sydney! Sydney is graduating from Brea Olinda HS and will be attending Marymount Manhattan on the other side of the country in the fall, working toward a BFA in Musical Theatre.
 
💃Sydney joined us at Stagelight Performing Arts when she was 12 years old. She studied Tap, Jazz, Musical Theatre, Contemporary/Modern, Lyrical, A Cappella, Acting, and Sketch Comedy.
 
💃She was very active in Brea’s show choir all throughout high school and has performed in numerous Stagelight Productions’ shows over the years.
 
💃Her favorite performance at Stagelight Performing Arts was when she was in multiple dance and acting numbers in our 2015 Holiday Showcase, “The Enchanted Toy Shoppe.” It was also her first performance “en pointe”! 🩰
 
💃Her favorite thing about being a Stagelighter was making new friends and learning different dance styles. She learned how to better herself as an artist through the classes she took in each of the different performing arts disciplines.
 
💃Her message to current and future Stagelighters is, “If you are truly passionate about the arts, don’t let others get in the way of you achieving your goals.” 
 
💃Although Sydney is nervous about moving all the way to New York City and having to figure out how to live in such a chaotic place, she is looking forward to experiencing life in a different city and being able to focus completely on her study of the arts. 
 
💃She “wills” her favorite spot at the barre to her friends. 
 

 

Sydney, it has been a joy watching you grow as a performer and come out of your shell. We can’t wait to watch you light up those Broadway stages soon, hopefully performing in your dream role as Roxie from “Chicago”!! 💃 💜⭐️

She earned a BA from Chapman University in Advertising with a Minor in Graphic Design and a Teaching Credential in Physical Education/Dance from Cal State Fullerton. Her performance credits include Disney and Fullerton Civic Light Opera. She has extensive experience in teaching, choreography, and show direction.

“One of my earliest memories is of something that happened during first grade: during recess, I would gather my friends and teach them different dances. Looking back, I can see that that set the foundation of what would be a lifelong role as a teacher. Participating in dance and musical theatre as a child gave me the focus, determination, confidence and bravery it took to land many successful performance and teaching jobs. Arts classes have allowed me to be creative and keep a healthy perspective on what is important in life. I truly believe that the performing arts should play a crucial role in every child’s life.” ~Alyssa
