Austin Z.

I currently am getting my Bachelor of Arts in Music, along with a minor emphasis in Musical Theatre at SMU!

I have had the opportunity to not only participate, but be associated in several productions throughout my high school and current college career. In June of 2016, I participated in the Gilbert and Sullivan scenes summer program at San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I played supportive and lead roles for all three shows, for instance a British soldier lead in Iolanthe, Cyril in Princess Ida, and the Duke in the Gondoliers. In my senior year of high school, I played the role of Marius Pontmercy, one of seven lead roles in the musical Les Miserables as part of the advanced acapella choir. Upon entering college, I was part of the choir ensemble in Lyric Stage’s production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Recently, I just finished a production of “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown” which was done as part of a May Term Musical Theater class at SMU; I played the role of Linus.

I ran my own vocal and piano studio during the summer of 2018; I had about 5 students!
