Who's Who
-
Elijah Magoon
as The Amazing Karnak
Elijah is excited to serve as the mechanical master of ceremonies. Having appeared in approximately 14 productions, this marks his first show at Footlight. Despite being new to community theatre and joining the cast later in the process, Elijah has never felt more welcomed. He extends special thanks to Levi for helping him get involved (and for the rides to and from rehearsal), to the cast for embracing him, and to the directors for guiding him into his biggest role yet. He hopes you enjoy the show — and be sure to Ride the Cyclone.

Tayla Diener
as Ocean O’Connell Rosenberg
Tayla is thrilled to be back on the Footlight stage once again. Tayla has been performing for six years and has appeared in more productions than she can count. When she’s not at Footlight, she is performing in her school’s production of The Drowsy Chaperone or dancing on her school’s dance team. Tayla also serves as choreographer for Footlight’s junior shows. She would like to thank her friends and family for listening to her sing these amazing songs millions of times — and especially her dog, Beasley!
