The Story of Eleni
Growing up in the mountains of Virginia, Eleni dreamed of entertaining people and putting a smile on their faces. She grew up taking singing and dance lessons and loving musical theatre with her two major influences being The Phantom of the Opera and the High School Musical Trilogy. However, even at a young age, she knew the risks of pursuing theatre as a career and decided to find something more stable.
Inspired by a trip to Nashville, TN, Eleni saw potential in becoming a country music singer. She made a setlist and started to perform at local wineries, coffee shops, and festivals. Eleni later even co-wrote and recorded an EP in Nashville. However, while working on her country music career, she was also an active member of the theatre program at her high school, and when it came time for college, Eleni threw caution to the wind and made the leap to follow her heart.
Flash forward to May of 2020, Eleni graduated from Huntington University with a BA in Theatre Performance and a Minor in Music. Released into the world amidst a global pandemic, Eleni was lucky enough to work in the fresh air of the Florida Keys at Hawks Cay Resort where she was the Entertainment Supervisor, a vocalist, a guitarist, and a mermaid (Yes, swimming in a silicone tail and all). Eleni left the sunshine state in 2022 to join the Round Barn Theatre Company in Indiana as a core cast member for their season and will be returning for their 2023 season!
