My name is Lizzie Eshleman and I proudly represent Ursuline Academy of New Orleans. Theatre has played a major role in shaping me into the person I am today. My love for performing began when I was just 6 years old. Some of my favorite roles that I have played are Regina George in Mean Girls, Cinderella in Into the Woods, and Cassie in A Chorus Line.

Brody LeBlanc,
Troupe 8383,
Destrehan High
Hi! My name is Brody LeBlanc, and I represent Destrehan High School’s Troupe 8383. I have been obsessed with theatre for the past eleven years and have been fortunate to grow both onstage in roles such as Scorpius in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: High School Edition, as well as backstage while stage managing Shrek: The Musical, which deepened my understanding of collaboration and storytelling from a different perspective. My theatre teachers have had a profound impact on me as both a performer and a person, which is why I hope to pursue theatre education in college.

Gabriel Scales,
Troupe 731,
Alexandria Senior High
Hi! I'm Gabriel Scales from Troupe 731, also known as Alexandria Senior High! I've been involved in performing arts since middle school and always found a way to put myself out there, even when there wasn't much opportunity to! If I could change anything, it'd be for everyone to try and put themselves out there for the world to see and not be ashamed! I've been in numerous shows like Peter and the Starcatcher and Heathers! I love travelling, dogs, and making new friends! I hope my time as an STO can build a positive foundation for Louisiana's Thespian community!
