ABOUT
"Elle Thompson (Maria) provides antic after capricious antic with uninhibited aplomb."
- Larry Kubert, Lincoln Journal Star
"The Nebraska Wesleyan Theatre Department has built a reputation of staging exceptional musical productions. 1776 was in another stratosphere."
-Cindy Conger, Lincoln Journal Star
When you grow up in suburban Nebraska with a Home Builder father, a high school P.E. teacher mother, and 2 younger sisters, the logical life choice is a performance career, right?
For Elle: definitely.
With a Bachelor of Fine arts degree in Musical Theatre and minors in Business Administration and Psychology, she relocated to NYC just in time for a global pandemic to rock the world and the performance industry. However, her love for New York City, and drive to tell great stories never faltered.
When she isn't at rehearsal or in performance, you can often find her driving around listening to music and drinking a cold brew coffee, or playing way too many video games.
"...all of the leads were superb. This collaborative effort made for spectacular performances of pieces like the hugely popular 'Time Warp.'"
- Stephan Laboy, Lincoln Journal Star
NEWS AND CURRENT PROJECTS . . .
Elle is eagerly awaiting the renaissance of art about to explode throughout The Big Apple as the city begins to pulse back to life. Find her in an audition room or serving tables in SOHO as things continue toward a post COVID normalcy.
AND NEXT . . .
Pandemic life has put a bit of a speed bump on "what's next", but in a way, anything could be! Keep eyes peeled for anything from a cameo in some scripted Podcasts, to possibly workshopping her original TV Pilot, to hopefully some exciting theatre opportunities.
