The first Journey show I ever watched was Descendants back in 2022…and we didn’t hit it off like you might’ve expected. The show was amazing and I was absolutely blown away by everyone in it, but I found myself jealous that all of those people had the confidence to pursue theater and I was still […]
When I was 8 years old my mom put me into a Journey kids camp, and I was honestly against it. For some reason I didn’t want to go, but it turned out to be such an amazing experience that I loved. After that I auditioned for my first show: Alice in Wonderland Jr. (2018), […]

When I was 8 I auditioned for my first Journey show. And I was… less than thrilled; I nearly backed out twice. I sang “This Little Light of Mine”, and I forgot the name of the song onstage. The only reason I was there in the first place was because a friend dragged me into […]
