Reagan Connell is thrilled to be taking part in Servant Stage’s TeenCo showcase! Reagan is so happy to have shared this experience and journey with her classmates. She is a 9th grader at PA Leadership Charter School and Center for Performing and Fine Arts. Since starting ballet at the age of 5, she has taken all forms of dance through the Lancaster School of Ballet, Cavod, and presently with Balance Dance.

She’d like to thank her family for their support and encouragement, her brother Noah for putting up with her never-ending singing and dancing, and of course Servant Stage for bringing joy and happiness through their performances to all those in the audience.
