Maddie has been an extremely active part of the Theater and Dance Department at Wilkes University throughout her four years here. Her freshman year gave her roles such as Mrs Peacock in Clue: On Stage, Rosie\/Featured Dancer in Sweet Charity, and Henry in the cancelled all-female production of Lord of the Flies. Sophomore year she was seen as Arminy in Carousel and Joan in Fun Home. In her Junior year she played roles such as Shelby in John Proctor is the Villain, Company in And The World Goes \u2018Round, Grace McPhee\/Queen Maureen in Between the Lines, Hymen (Priest) in As You Like It. Her senior year included Diana Bingley in I Love You Because and Helen Hubbard in Murder on the Orient Express. With her minor in Sport Psychology, she studies the rehabilitation of actors\/dancers, as well as the treatment of artists as athletes. Her dream is to one day combine this entire paragraph of things she loves, into a curriculum that can inspire the next generation of theatrical artists.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
