Grantham Durham
as Jimmy Harper
Grantham is absolutely thrilled to be in one of his favorite musicals that is fun for the whole family. Grantham has most recently been lucky enough to play the Ghost of Christmas Past in the last of Naomi Rose Mock's Christmas Carols, and has been in productions such as the Music Man (Harold Hill), Romeo and Juliet (Romeo), Cabaret (Victor), Carrie the Musical (Tommy), and many more. Grantham would like to thank Krystof, Kelly, Piper, Lizzie, and Bradley for being the best team this production could ask for as well as his friends and family with special shoutouts to Tyler Brown for being the best person alive, Dakota for all the rehearsal rides, and a final special thank you to Waffle House which has truly become a Waffle Home.
