Lesley Gallagher
Assistant Director/Choreographer/Dialect Coach
Lesley is thrilled to again be working with Garrison Players on this beautiful production. Originally from Scotland, Lesley first began her career as a dance teacher at age 16. Her professional work took her to resorts, theaters, and nightclubs in Europe and the Middle East. Since immigrating to the USA she taught dance, choreographed, performed, and directed 100+ shows for theater companies in Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, Connecticut, and New Hampshire, as well as directing/co-choreographing a “Broadway Revue” in Ravello, Italy.
Much love to my husband, Marc, for supporting my love of theater and for “waiting in the wings.”
