Jake Kindall
as Benny Southstreet
Jake is so happy to be back with ECT. This is his 4th show here with ECT, and he couldn’t have asked for more. He performed in “Beauty and the Beast” last year as Cogsworth here at ECT. He has performed in many shows throughout high school, his favorite being “The Flurry,” written by Rylan Fischer. Jake is pursuing a career in commercial music at Utah Valley University. He wants to thank everyone who has supported him in his acting and music career up until now. He wants to give all the glory to God and the love and peace he feels through Him on stage. Jesus is King. Thank you, ECT, for everything you’ve done for the actors!
