About the Director, Mrs. Kelley Sauve
I have performed in theater since middle school, when I was cast as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. As a young adult, I was cast as the mother in The Best Christmas Pageant Ever and the person cast as the father became my real life husband, who is the biggest supporter of my job. Theater has been a huge part of my life and I am thankful to be able to work with young actors. This production is my first musical and I am so proud of the team that has made this come together! Break a leg!
