Johnna has choreographed, directed and performed for years...okay, decades, in numerous shows and venues in the metro area, as well as Macon, Ga. Most recently, she was seen in Disaster! (Jackie Noelle/choreographer), and The Graduate (Mrs. Robinson) at Act3 Productions. Most recent directing credits include 12 Angry Jurors, Godspell (MAT nominated) and Big Fish (MAT award, choreography). She is the proud recipient of the Metro Atlanta Theater’s President’s Award for having been nominated ten or more times in various categories. She co-directs and choreographs musicals in 6 different elementary, middle and high schools throughout Cobb, and is the Director of Education at Act3. She would like to thank John-Michael, Stephen, Riley, Claire, Lauren, Rachel and Sophie for sharing their immense talents, and her amazing husband, Danny for his ongoing patience and support.
