MEET THE DIRECTORS

Bailey Robert - Lead Director
Born and raised in the Lone Star State, Bailey received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatre Performance from Baylor University and went on to pursue a Masters in Theatre at Oklahoma State University. Between undergrad and graduate school, she worked for a children's theatre company in Seattle, Washington as a teaching artist, running summer musical theatre camps and after school theatre programs. She was excited to return Texas to begin her adventure teaching in Aggieland where she taught for six years in Bryan ISD. Bailey is thrilled to be returning to the DFW area near her family to join the Frisco ISD fine arts team and launch the Panther Creek campus. Some of her favorite productions include Peter & the Starcatcher, Little Women, and A Midsummer Night's Dream. When not in rehearsal, she can most often be found with a Chick-fil-a sweet tea in hand, traveling (preferably with a show included!), and reading her way through the nearest bookstore.
