About Me!
Will is a 21 year old Worcester based non-union student performer. With over a decade of acting, singing, dancing & improv training, he has plenty to offer any project he is welcomed to be a part of.
Some of Will's experiences:
The Hanover Theatre - Youth Summer Program
The Hanover Theatre's Youth Summer Program is a 3-week long musical theatre intensive in which 30 teen students will audition and be selected for the program to put on a full length Broadway musical in a pre-professional setting on a professional theatrical stage. His favorite role he played here was Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. Learn more here: https://thehanovertheatre.org/conservatory/summer/teen-musical-theatre/
Youth Acting Company
The Youth Acting Company is an invite only, resident performance group of 16 teens in which they rehearse and perform 3 different genres of theatre over the course of about 10 months, and perform them all in an intimate theater space. Those genres being a stage play, a classical play, and a full length musical. Learn more here: https://thehanovertheatre.org/conservatory/performance-opportunities/youth-acting-company-2/
College Theatre
Will graduated from Quinsigamond Community College in May of 2024, acting in their theatre department since 2022. His favorite role he played at this school was Romeo in their production of Romeo & Juliet. He is now attending the University of Massachusetts Amherst where he played George Gibbs in their production of Our Town, and after a semester of helping the UMass Theatre Guild behind the scenes, he is playing the Mad Hatter in their production of Alice by Heart.
Will also got admitted to the NYU Tisch School of the Arts for the 2024 Fall semester, but was unable to go due to financial aid issues.
Album Recordings
Will was included in the Hanover Theatre's first Christmas album recording, prominently featured as a bass ensemble singer in the song, "Children Go Where I Send Thee," in October of 2022.

Devised Theatre
In July of 2021 and 2022, Will was a performer in a brand new devised theatre program known as, "The WYSH Project," (Worcester Youth Speak Honestly). This piece allowed students to have a platform to speak their truths on social, citywide and even worldwide issues that affected them. This process allowed students to create the performance from the ground up themselves, culminating in both a mainstage performance and a tour of the show across a myriad of schools throughout the city.
