Gabriel Forte Freeman

as Evan Goldman

My name is Gabriel Forte Freeman. I’m 14 and 

I’ve been acting with the DramaPlayers since 2019's "Frozen" where I played "King Agnarr" and a "Hidden Folk Troll".  In "13", I play "Evan Goldman," the main character. I’ve had a love of the arts forever. It started with singing but has moved into acting and singing as well. Next, I will be attending Duke Ellington School of the Arts to continue studying Theater Arts. My life is just getting started.

Adalie Darlson

Adalie Darlson is newly 14, and has a huge passion for the stage. She's been taking voice lessons on and off for 4 years, and is about to spend her high school years at Duke Ellington School of the Arts for singing. She has prior acting experience, including Sense and Sensibility (Maryanne), Frozen Jr. (Young Anna), The Best Worst Christmas Pageant Ever (Gladys Herdman), etc. This is her first big musical role, and she's very excited to tell Patrice's story!

Colette Gregg

as Archie

Colette Gregg is grateful to have participated in this production. Her favorite aspect of the play and acting, in general, is being the comedic relief. This is her first year in theater at Stuart-Hobson and she has loved every minute of it; connecting with new people, learning vocal techniques, and even struggling to remember lines! She enjoys spending time with her two younger sisters, reading, writing, feminism, and listening to music. Colette will be attending School Without Walls High School in the fall and is looking forward to pursuing additional theater production opportunities.
