Graciela is so excited to return to the stage after a 10 year hiatus. Beginning in high school in Roseburg, OR, she fell in love with musical theater after being a part of UACT’s production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Since then, she has been a part of over 10 productions, all of them being musicals. Some of her notable roles include Ermengarde from Hello Dolly, Dina from School House Rock, Jr, and Charlotte from Oliver! After taking a break to complete her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees as well as start a career in teaching, she is ready to get back on stage with her first production with Theater in the Grove. She’d like to thank Brad Allen, her high school theater teacher, for always believing in her star potential, and her partner Ryan for always being there, on and off the stage.
