Abigail Shedd, Education Production Manager
Performing has been a huge part of Abigail's life since she could walk. Beginning as a toddler ballerina, to recorder extraordinaire (though her hands were too small to cover the holes), she found her place in the performing arts as a musician and drama kid. A decade later, Abigail performs professionally as a freelance musician and works full time in theatre.
Abigail first joined the Lakewood Playhouse team in April 2018 as a Box Office Assistant. From there, she has taken on roles as Assistant Stage Manager (Biloxi Blues), Stage Manager (The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, The Wolves, Mmmbeth!), Orchestral Musician (Heathers: The Musical, Ragtime), LIT Music Instructor (Aladdin KIDS) and most recently Education Production Manager! She hopes to one day direct or music direct a show at LPH. Other credits include work at Broadway Olympia Productions (Reed; The Wedding Singer Live!), CSTOCK (Reed, Shrek! The Musical; Director, Peter Pan Jr), and Bremerton Community Theatre (Belle, Beauty and the Beast). A first-generation college graduate, Abigail earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a minor in Music Performance at just 20 years old from Pacific Lutheran University in 2019. She is a graduate student at Arkansas Tech University earning a graduate certificate in Academic Advising hoping to one day work in student life at a university. During her time at PLU, Abigail studied classical saxophone under the instruction of Dr. Erik Steighner. She performed in all four major ensembles and participated in many chamber and combo groups, including arranging and performing in PLU's 2019 production Night of Musical Theatre: I Gotta Story. Other hobbies include painting, music theory analysis (yes, for FUN), photography, videography, planning vacations she can't afford, pageants, and anything musical theatre!
