Alayna bowen
Alayna Bowen is 14 years old and a ninth grade student at Savannah Arts Academy majoring in theatre. Despite nine year's training in ballet, hip-hop, jazz and tap, Alayna insisted that her art major would be in theatre rather than dance. Some of her favorite roles have been as Rebecca Gibbs in "Our Town," Wendy in "Peter Pan," and Cinderella in "Into the Woods," while her most far-fetched role was playing a nine-year-old boy named Josh who witnesses Santa's murder (and inadvertently starts the apocalypse) in a local production of "The Stupidest Angel." Alayna made her film debut as the lead in a short film executive produced by Joss Whedon entitled "Winter Chemistry." In addition to acting, Alayna takes piano and voice lessons. She loves the band Five Seconds of Summer, 80's movies, sushi, singing, anything Broadway and experimenting with makeup. Alayna's dreams of someday playing Elpheba in "Wicked," Audrey from "Little Shop of Horrors," and Cosette in "Les Misérables."
