is thrilled to be making her Arizona Theatre Company debut! Elena is a Tucson, Arizona, native, classically trained ballet and modern dancer, and received training from Ballet Arts/Ballet Tucson under the direction of Mary Beth Cabana in Tucson, and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in New York City. She has recently trained in the American Ballet Theater teacher-training program and is currently teaching dance and arts integration at Utterback Middle School with the OMA program at Tucson Unified School District. She is a newcomer to the theater, but her favorite credits include Choreographer/Principal Dancer in Sweeney Todd, Girl in The Big Meal, The Mute in The Fantasticks, and Laurie in a recent reading of Elaine Romero’s Wetback. Elena would like to thank her husband Josh and four-year-old Pokémon trainer Evangeline for their never ending love and support. @breadgeniequach
