Hi! I'm Diya Mantena, and I'm the President of Elkins Theatre Company! As a senior, I've been involved in several productions over the last several years, with some notable roles being Wicked Witch in The Wizard of Oz and Carol Melkett in Black Comedy. I've received several awards from UIL OAP, competed at the state level in the Texas Thespian Convention, and written a play myself. ETC has been another home for me, always providing support while still pushing me to the best version of myself. I'm thankful for all the opportunities ETC has opened up for me, and want to continue giving them to others. This season is going to be AWESOME! 

Hey! My name is Charlotte Tran and I'm your ETC Vice President! I have been in several productions such as Little Shop of Horrors, Wizard of Oz, Complete Female Stage Beauty, and many more. I am mainly an actress, but I aspire to learn more about tech and set this year. I am so grateful for the opportunities I've been given in ETC and excited to have others experience it just as I have. Because this is my final, senior year in the company, I am so excited to make it the best 2023-2024 year as I possibly can!  

Hello, my name is Kiwis Sopher! I am a junior and the Secretary for Elkins Theatre Company. This is my second year at Elkins High school which makes me incredibly grateful to be able to hold this title. In the year that I have been with my ETC family, I've been able to be apart of every show. I am the Stage Manager for many shows, some including, Little Shop of Horrors, UIL OAP 22-23, SOAPs The Last Straw, and a few others. As well as working in Set Crew, Hair & Makeup, Costumes, Directing, and a little Acting. While I have spent my time last year with ETC focusing on tech, I am an actor at heart. I have preformed on stage and in TV/Commercial acting my whole life. Theatre is my passion, I give my all and find so much joy in producing such beautiful experiences for an audience. I hope to be able to share my knowledge and passion for the arts with everyone interested. This year I want to focus on organizing our space and keeping things running smoothly. I hope to grow as an actor, as a Stage Manager, and for us as a company. ETC holds a special place in my heart, I can't wait to see what it becomes.
