Actor’s Portfolio: Alena Gurevich
Alena Gurevich as Little Becky Two-Shoes in Sewickley Academy’s 2022 Senior School Musical “Urinetown”.
Alena, sophomore, performed in her final show at SA, previously being in Bye Bye Birdie and Annie. She also designed posters for Urinetown, 12 Angry Jurors, and Spelling Bee and has played the violin for 10 years. In fact, she took an ARSM violin diploma exam the day after set strike, where she had to play 30 min of very complicated and diverse pieces. It was a great learning experience having to manage a heavy workload for a prolonged period of time - rehearsing for the musical, designing the poster, and practicing for a violin exam while keeping up with homework and tests.
Alena and her photobombing dog
Our dog is a notorious photobomber. When he thinks my daughter and I have spent enough time in my studio, he just lies down in front of the camera and won’t budge. This is a rare occasion when I can actually photograph him in a still position, not running, jumping, barking, or chasing a chipmunk.
