This is Matt’s second show here at Elk Grove Spotlight Theatre and he couldn’t be more proud of all of the hard work each cast member, staff, parent, and volunteer put into this show! Matt graduated from Elmhurst University with a Bachelors in Psychology. He has performed and directed in many shows throughout his youth. His previous shows as a director include Elf Jr, Oliver, Frozen Jr, Shrek and Guys & Dolls Jr (his first show with Spotlight). He hopes you enjoy every moment of Spotlight Theatre’s production of Disney’s Descendants, and thanks you for the ongoing support this community welcomed him into.
