About AmeliaAmelia is a professional teaching artist, stage manager, director, makeup artist, and actor currently based in Lansing, Michigan. She has worked in theaters across Michigan as well as in Ohio, Illinois, New York, and London, England. Currently, she works with All-of-us Express Children's Theatre and The Wharton Center for Performing Arts, both located in East Lansing. Amelia has a background in Theatre Production, Youth Education, and Arts and Cultural Management.
Amelia grew up in a theatre that pushes youth to study both the backstage magic as well as shine onstage and started out her theatre career by studying and heavily pursuing acting. She stage managed her first show in 2015 and fell in love with the fast-paced, problem solving position. As she continued to stage manage shows, she soon found herself backstage more often than onstage and decided to make the switch. As a part of her belief to never stop learning or advancing your craft, Amelia is currently pursuing more knowledge and hands on experience dealing with lighting and sound design. When she finds free time, Amelia spends it developing educational programs, designing workshops for Girl Scout Troupes, and volunteering within community theatre. She has also recently taken up teaching herself the violin; the neighbors and her cat are less thrilled about it than she is. |
