Elaina Lee Waggoner was born and raised in Minnesota and is currently based out of NYC. Her experience with music and theatre began when she was a little girl, making up songs, dancing around the living room, and putting on performances for her family with her two sisters. She performed in her first production when she was 7 years old, and the rest is history. There is nothing in the world that Elaina would rather do than create something incredible with people who share her passions. Since 2018, when she started pursuing theatre consistently, she has worked hard to learn and gain experience in many different sides of the arts, including interning, being featured in short films, choreographing, participating in intensives and camps, being on costume crew, and more. Elaina is always ready to jump into the next thing, excited and ready to grow and to pursue her goals and dreams for the rest of her life. She is currently studying musical theatre at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City, where she plans on graduating from the integrated conservatory in February of 2027.
