Mishon Levine in Sewickley Academy’s musical Fiddler on the Roof

The last actor for Sewickley Academy’s ‘Fiddler on the Roof” without whom the whole musical would be lacking its crucial ingredient - the live sounds of a violin. What a performance. Bravo, Mishon!

Brooke Menzock in Sewickley Academy’s musical Fiddler on the Roof

It feels like yesterday when we produced this headshot for beautiful Brooke for the Sewickley Academy’s Fiddler on the Roof senior school musical that showed just days before the lockdown.

I can’t believe she’s already a senior this year. Stay tuned for a blog with her senior pictures.

Beatlemania Now at the Strand

The first live show of the year - “Beatlemania Now” at the Strand Theater in Zelienople. If you love the “Liverpool Four” and haven’t seen this show, I would definitely recommend it. The auditorium is quite spacious but there are just a few rows, so you feel totally present in the show from any seat. What’s your favorite Beatles song?

Actor’s Portfolio for Zoe

Zoe was a thunderstorm on stage. You couldn’t look anywhere else when she was on stage. She played Yente and was the embodiment of a busybody and a matchmaker in the most hilarious way.

Her other interests are playing golf, extreme board gaming, and writing cool music at Vanderbilt.
