“Stepping onto the Broadway stage and joining the Moulin Rouge! The Musical team is an absolute honor,” “I’ve always believed in pushing myself creatively and theater is definitely a new opportunity that I’m excited to embrace. Broadway demands a different level of discipline, preparation and storytelling, but I’m up for the challenge and can’t wait for the Hotties to see a new side of me.”
