Baton Rouge Magnet High School

Who's Who

Jacquelyn Penouilh

as Tracy Turnblad

Jacquelyn, a senior, is extremely excited to be making her big debut in BRMHS's production of "Hairspray." Although this is her first theatre performance, she has played piano for 8 years. After finishing high school, Jacquelyn plans to attend LSU to earn "a degree in Musicology with a minor in Ethnic Studies."
Tommy Do

as Corny Collins

Tommy Do, a senior, is a very enthusiastic member of the “Hairspray” cast and is quite involved in the performing and visual arts departments at BRMHS. Throughout high school, he has been a member of the Glee Club and has performed with other groups, such as the International Cultural Association. He decided not to return to Glee this year, but the itch to perform (especially in his favorite musical) is what motivated him to audition for “Hairspray.” This is his first legitimate acting role. He would like to thank his father, brother, grandparents, and the rest of his family for being there for him. He’d like to especially thank his mother who has never missed any of his performances and, of course, Mrs. Holliday for her amazing guidance.
Kelia Rowan

as Edna Turnblad

Kelia is currently a junior at BRMHS. She has taken Talented Theatre since the third grade and is currently in rehearsals for "The Chairs" (Old Man) and "The Basement Project." She is excited to be taking on the role of Assistant Director in the Talented Theatre program next year.
Cecile Johnson

as Penny Pingleton

Cecile has been acting in the Talented Theatre program for all three years since she has been at BRMHS. She plans to attend Loyola University in New Orleans and major in theatre once she finishes high school. She is best known for her roles as Watson in "Sherlock Holmes: Adventures of the Sussex Vampire," Smilin' Sal in "A Dark and Stormy Night," and Thea in "The Holy Ham Alliance."
