Young Star Musical Theatre

Crew Who's Who

Shmaine Shepherd

Director

Shmaine has performed professionally since the age of 5. From commercials to touring with a theater troupe in Southern California, Shmaine has a large resume of musical theatre experience. In 2001, Shmaine began YSMT with only 11 kids which skyrocketed to 150 within 5 years. After 15 years in Arizona, her daughter Lexy, convinced Shmaine to help her create a YSMT they could do together in Florida. Beginning with 11 kids yet again, the two never gave up and are thrilled to have 112 fabulous Young Stars to teach and love throughout each week.
Lexy Shepherd

Managing Director

Lexy is a Young Star through and through. Performing in YSMT since she was 5, she has performed in over 45 productions through YSMT, high school, community theatre, semi-professional theatre, and college. Lexy is so proud and grateful for how far YSMT has come in the last 4 years. This last year was a huge accomplishment with performing two large mainstage productions at the Dr. Phillips Center with 60+ students in each show. Lexy has a 4-year-old daughter that also loves performing in the YSMT minis program. Lexy is grateful to her fiance, Jonathan, for his continuous love and support.

Choreography & Costumes

Team Shmaine and Lexy work together to create show-stopping production numbers with help from one another and creative input from YSMT students. Costumes are 90% recycled and upcycled from thrift stores or donations. Together, Shmaine and Lexy are an unstoppable team!
Robyn Holton

Artistic Painting & Sets

Robyn is a person who is always on the move. She is a mom of 3 amazing kids, works for Disney, volunteers her time to YSMT painting props and sets, loves hiking and camping, and playing sports. She is a force to be reckoned with!
