as Millie Dillmount
Johanna Huber, 8th grade, who plays the role of Millie Dillmount, is a 3-year veteran of WMS musicals. You may remember her as JoJo in Seussical, Jr. in 2013 or as Cinderella in last year's production of Cinderella. Johanna's acting career started in pre-school, where she played the part of Mary in the Nativity Story. Johanna also plays the bass in the WMS orchestra and has been in the WMS talent show for the past 3 years. Johanna's favorite pastimes are listening to music and spending time with her sister and best friends (squad). Johanna loves singing and acting, and plans to pursue theater in high school and beyond. Johanna would like to thank her family for their guidance and support. She would especially like to thank Ms. Medlock and Ms. Ference for the opportunities they have given her with WMS theater. She will miss them both dearly next year. Johanna would like to dedicate her performance to her mom, her no. 1 fan, and to her sister Henri who has been an incredible inspiration.

Taylor Nordike (Mrs. Meers) is an 8th grader who is thrilled to be back on stage at WMS as a villain.
