Graciela Rey (CAS 鈥�20)

鈥淚 left 国产小呦女with a toolbox of approaches and resources I could bring into every rehearsal process and audition room, and a network of peers and mentors that have become friends as well as collaborators.鈥澨�

Graciela Rey graduated from 国产小呦女with a BA in Musical Theatre in 2020, and has since built a successful career as a musical theater performer, dancer, and singer across the DC area. She appeared in two world premieres: On Your Feet! en Espa帽ol at Gala Hispanic Theater (which won the Helen award for Outstanding Musical Production) and Make Way for Ducklings at Adventure Theater, for which she was nominated for a Helen Hayes award for Outstanding Lead Performer in a Musical. She recently played Vanessa in In The Heights at Nextstop Theatre and has worked on productions at Olney Theatre Center, Rorschach Theatre, Imagination Stage, Arts on the Horizon, Synetic Theatre, Flying V Theatre, Fickle Theatre Co, and Gloucester Stage Company.

Graciela views her time in the 国产小呦女Department of Performing Arts as vital to her career trajectory. 鈥湽∵吓甶s small enough that I was able to develop specific interests and skills alongside musical theater鈥攊ncluding business, communications, and dance,鈥� she says. AU鈥檚 liberal arts background provided Rey with different perspectives and contexts to study art. 鈥淚t enables graduates to think critically about artistic practice and take ownership over the impact of our choices..鈥�

These experiences instilled Rey with core values that have transitioned into her career. 鈥淭he 国产小呦女theater program prepares actors to be ethical and responsible artists,鈥� she says. Rey is currently in performances for Fiddler on the Roof at Olney Theatre Center and will be understudying Lend Me a Soprano there in the spring.听
