*Meet "Richie" aka Reese Wheeler
Reese has been dancing since he could stand. His first performance at a dance recital he wasn't even two yet!
Dancing and performing come naturally to Reese. He started to get noticed in Portland, Oregon when performing an impromptu dance at a talent show. He moved shortly after to Southern Utah to be a part of the performing art school, where he immediately made Principal. He has since taken many first places with his team in competition, as well as second in a dance he choreographed minutes before the competition. Reese has danced with Thriller as well, and is also on a singing/dancing performing team.
Reese has been performing in plays since 2014; where he has loved his lead roles, as well as other casting rolls and ensemble. The recent role he just landed is Bert, in Mary Poppins.
Reese has modeled since he was an infant and his smile and expression is a huge part of what captures the audience, besides his born talent.
Reese loves being a tween as well. He enjoys reading books, jumping on the trampoline, vacationing with his family, hanging out with his friends and writing.
He gives gratitude to his mentors and loves that he can express so much in movement.
"Thank you to my family and friends for supporting me. I know this all possible because of you!"
There are just 10 chances to see Reese in the Southern Utah Premier of this Pulitzer Prize-winning show!!
