St. Paul alum, Dana Wilton on broadway!

Just a few years ago, Dana Wilton, '16 graced the St. Paul stage as Liesel in The Sound of Music, where she won best supporting actress in the CT High School Musical Theater Awards program, along with other lead roles throughout her high school career. Dana was a dynamic force in the St. Paul Performing Arts program. 
 
 
"As a drama teacher, this is one of the most amazing things to happen to one of your students," exclaims Mark Mazzarella, director of the school's theater program. When you have students succeed at this level and you see them living out their dream, you can't help but feel joy for their success." I couldn't be more proud of Dana!" 
 
 
She'll be making her Broadway debut in the new Elton John musical Tammy Faye which made its world premiere in London in 2022 and won the Laurence Olivier Award in 2023. It boasts some of Broadway's biggest names and opens in November. Speaking for all of us, from the students who worked and performed with Dana and to those in our St. Paul community, we wish Dana all the best in her Broadway debut!
