Eli is excited to join Crane River for another summer season! An upcoming 8th grader at Horizon in Kearney, Eli loves being involved with Crane River productions along with football, show choir, playing Xbox and board games, and following the LA Chargers. You may have seen Eli onstage previously as a Macy’s and North Pole elf in Elf the Musical last winter and Flounder in The Little Mermaid last summer. Eli would like to thank his parents, his sister Maggie, his grandparents, and all of his family and friends for cheering him on as he pursues the theatrical arts. Eli’s family would also like to extend a special thanks to Crane River for giving so many aspiring young thespians opportunities on stage and behind the scenes within the numerous educational opportunities throughout rural Nebraska, such as the annual summer camps that Crane River offers for kids of all ages!
