Originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Phelan Newman ’27 (Bachelor of  Fine Arts in Acting) is ecstatic to be in her fifth main stage production at Shenandoah Conservatory! Favorite past credits include The Miser (Dame Claude), Antigone (Chorus), Godspell (Turn Back, O Man) and The Little Mermaid (Ursula).

She cannot thank Scott Hudson enough for letting her take on this role that has been a year-long journey, along with this incredible and HILARIOUS company for making her smile everyday! She will never forget this show. All the love to her mom, dad, Locklin and mini poodle Dinkus, as well as her roomates and precious dog Buckley at The Barbie Dreamhouse!

For Jan and Charlie, the best grandparents a girl could ever ask for.
