Hey y’all! I’m Max, a young musical theatre performer/actor. I’m currently 18 years old and a recent graduate from Oak Ridge High School! I went through the musical theatre college audition process during the ‘23-‘24 school year, and landed on attending UArts to pursue a BFA in musical theatre. And as most of us know… UArts closed. BUT I am back at it again, reauditioning this year! I’ve been lucky enough to be chosen as one of four scholars for this years TFCA (The Fund for College Auditions) cohort, and couldn’t be more excited/grateful to work with them!

I’ve been performing since the age of 9, premiering in my elementary school’s production of “Beauty and the Beast” as a villager. Since then I’ve been in shows such as Into The Woods, The Lightning Thief, Anastasia, and even Cats!

Some exciting developments in the past year that have happened for me: I was apart of the two biggest MT competitions for young actors — the Jimmy Awards as a featured soloist, and the national YoungArts competition as a winner with distinction! — both of those performances can be found in my video gallery ;) —

XOXO :)
