Who is Makenzi Anyways?

Hey Y'all!

​

I grew up in a small town near Louisville, Kentucky, but now I'm chasing my dreams in New York City! I have a passion for musical theatre and theatre for young audience work! I dedicate every moment of auditioning, performing, and creating to supporting the arts and TYA work. Without the influence of Fund for the Arts, this little redhead would not have found her voice and realized the desire to chase her dreams. 

​

Ultimately, I would love to pursue my license to work in drama therapy and to have the chance to work with special needs kids in a therapeutic storytelling environment. 

​

Outside of the theatre, I love teaching and assisting yoga classes, hanging upside down in my aerial hoop, and finding the best ice cream shop.
