Myles Finn

Myles is in his fifth year as choral director at Indianola High School, in Indianola, Iowa. He is the director of The Indianola Singers, The Apollo Chorus, and Cantare. He also co-directs Indianola’s Varsity Show Choir, Side One and directs the JV Show Choir, Flip Side. He and his wife are the directors of musicals at Indianola High School.

He is most known for his TikTok videos going Viral at the start of the 2022 school year. Amassing over 120 million views and 1.1 million followers, his videos have seemed to spark a love for choral music, musical theatre, and goofy choir teachers.

Myles received his Master’s Degree in Choral Conducting from Michigan State University, and his Bachelor's of Music Education from Wartburg College in Waverly, Iowa. He directly relates his success within his classroom to his work with Drs. Reed and Rayl at Michigan State, his work with Dr. Lee Nelson at Wartburg College, and his passionate high school choir director, Duane Philgreen.

Myles is a loving father and husband. He and his wife, choreographer and school counselor Haley (Rudd) Finn live in Indianola and they are proud parents to a beautiful son, Rory Lee Allen, and Baby (girl!) Finn, due in July of this year! When Myles is not in the choral classroom, he can be found on the golf course, playing video games, and spending time with his loving family.

Haley Finn

Haley is excited to be the choreographer for this year’s show! This is her fourth year choreographing after successfully working with The Sound of Music, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and The Wizard of Oz. She is currently working as PK-6 School Counselor at Pleasantville Elementary and will be joining the Indianola Middle School Counseling staff at the beginning of the '23-'24 school year!

As a dancer, Haley danced with two private studios growing up and danced with Wartburg College’s dance team.  Besides The Sound of Music, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, and The Wizard of Oz, Haley helped with Disney’s Newsies and Disney’s The Little Mermaid. She has also performed in The Wizard of Oz, Cinderella, Thoroughly Modern Millie, and Footloose. 

Haley is the loving wife of Myles and mother to 1-year-old Rory Finn with baby No. 2 on the way! Haley wants to thank the cast for being babysitters during rehearsal and for giving Rory so much love throughout this rehearsal process.

To the kiddos,

"Mama Finn is so proud of the hard work you've put into this show.  It's so fun to see the growth that you've all done over the last few months. Thank you for your determination, patience, and for kicking butt all spring! 

Love,

Haley"
