Payton Seel
as Anya
(10) Disney's Beauty and the Beast (Ensemble). As long as she can remember, Payton has been involved musically here at WCS, starting in elementary choir, into middle school choir, and now Concert Choir and Jubilee Singers! Back in eighth grade she decided to venture out and try the musical, Disney's Beauty and the Beast. She stole the show with her big solo…as a carpet. She found herself never wanting to stop performing! This year has been a whole new experience for her, getting to be a lead. "I am so beyond grateful for all the amazing people who have helped make this possible: Mr. Polman, Mr. Hausheer, Shauna, and more. I would also like to give a special thanks to all my friends and family who have helped me along the way, but specifically Anna. Thank you for always being there for me, I love you! Finally, I thank God for allowing me to have this talent and use it to honor Him."
