I am so pleased to welcome you to my newly formed company, Moon Piper Productions.  The mission of Moon Piper Productions is to connect people through original musicals and immersive concert experiences. As a performer, songwriter, and playwright, I am fully aware of the challenges involved in bringing innovative music experiences…

Now that I am in the midst of my first semester of college at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee, summer seems like a lifetime ago. My time spent with Stage Right Performing Arts has helped shape me into the person I am today, and I’m so grateful for the many memories and friendships made along the way. Here are a few photos and videos from my final show at Stage Right playing Rusty in Footloose!

It seems fitting that an unlikely fairytale was born out of unprecedented times. During the pandemic lock down I settled in to read the treasure trove of diaries and letters that I had unearthed from my grandmother's basement and became lost in thought. Sometimes in the midst of crisis it can be hard to find magic and wonder, but as I read my great-grandmother's diaries, I saw that Lorene faced one challenge after another but never stopped believing in the magic of life. As I sifted through pages upon pages…

I never thought I would have so much fun playing the grouchy, cartoonish Squidward Q. Tentacles. I am so thankful to have been a part of this production for my senior year at Shawnee Mission East High School! A special shoutout to Audrey Morehead who created my costume including the extra leggy-tastic legs! This year has been especially exciting due to being cast in a wide variety of parts…

Chicago with its witty lines and iconic songs has always been one of my favorite musicals. Playing Roxie Hart was a dream come true, and I’m so grateful to have had this experience my senior year. Stage Right Performing Arts has been a part of my life since I was four years old and has helped shape me into the person I am today, both as a performer and a human. Through the years…

Summer would not feel complete without being a part of a Stage Right Performing Arts production! All Shook Up is a musical that features Elvis Presley’s music and is filled with lots of funny moments. It was such a blast to play the villain of the show, Mayor Matilda Hyde. Thank you so much to everyone who…

So many times, we are told stories that conclude with a traditional fairytale ending where good triumphs over evil, and we all live happily ever after. The thing is, life isn’t like that. Life doesn’t follow set patterns. What if the magic of life is woven into the story and is not the final destination? What if we tell a new story…

Ever since my fourth grade teacher introduced me to the game, I have been fascinated by chess. This past December when strolling by the window of an antique store, a large chess set with wooden carved pieces caught my eye. I was so excited to discover the very set wrapped up under the Christmas tree. When Stage Right Performing Arts announced they were putting on the musical Chess…

As I scrolled through Pinterest this morning, the quote above really struck me. In 2021, I had a distinct moment of surrender where I stopped waiting. Not only did I stop waiting, but I stopped searching. It was then that I was able to experience my “year of the phoenix.” As the year 2022 approaches…

Playing Tanya in Stage Right Performing Arts’ production of Mamma Mia was probably one of the most fun roles I have ever done! Everything about this musical is alive with energy: the costumes, the songs, the cast, etc. Wow, I wish I could…

Sometimes we experience time in a dream-like state, fluctuating from moments we want to save in a locket, to moments we just want to lock away. When reality is stranger than fiction, the passage of time takes on a new form. We seize the present, only to have a vague sense that we have been there before…

"Hey Robin" brings the spirit of Robin Hood to modern day music. In this song, Robin, a female, brings awareness to the great divides our country is facing. Both inspirational and haunting, "Hey Robin" is a song for the times…

Tangled Web embodies how simple things can reveal more complex situations. The people we meet leave traces that intertwine into a tangled web that makes up our life and story. The lessons we learn from other people shape us and our future. In some ways on the outside this seems like a simple song, but…

Need some therapeutic relief from the monotony of quarantine? Download and print my free Elusive Blue coloring page made by my incredibly talented sister, Alexandra Violet (who also happens to be a Hallmark artist). This design incorporates symbols from all of the songs on…

Like where the sea touches the sky, blue can be elusive. Sometimes we don’t know where one thing ends and another begins. My new album, Elusive Blue, explores the many shades of this color.

I am so pleased to bring you my new original song, Warrior Queen! In this song with drums and tribal sounds, the Warrior Queen has been banished to an island. She emerges from the blue lagoon wearing…

After a two year hiatus, I am back to doing my favorite strength building and flexibility exercise: aerial silks. Last summer I was determined to make this a priority and found a way to fit it into my schedule. I think what I love so much about aerial silks is that it…

Since we are about to enter the 2020’s, I figured I should share some videos and pictures from Stage Right Performing Arts’ production of Thoroughly Modern Millie which takes place in the 1920’s. Last summer I was so grateful to play the part of Millie in this show…

Let me introduce my new music. My original song, “Checkmate,” which is now available on Spotify and iTunes is a sneak peak into my new album. My new sound has a lot more complexities to it. The following is a play by play interpretation of the lyrics…

On April 13, 2014 a white supremacist gunned down three beautiful souls in Overland Park, Kansas. Fourteen year old Reat Underwood, his grandfather, William Corporon, and Terri LaManno lost their lives that day. In their memory, Seven Days was created…
