Lauren got bit by the acting bug as a little kid. Often as a 5 year old she’d sing songs and make her S’s whistle to get a laugh. Her mother worked as a special events manager while she was growing up so often she was her mother’s go-to Elf, Fairy, Clown or any other character needed for events. No matter what she does with Valley Players, whether it’s stage managing, acting, volunteer grunt worker or board member, it’s always fun.
