Bekah McClellan
Theatre Lead Teacher, Big Production Director
Bekah has had a passion for theatre and story-telling for as long as she can remember. Growing up with a Dad who created multiple drama groups, including a children's theatre, she was able to learn every aspect of the stage. From backstage workings like set design, costumes, props and stage managing, to loving the spotlight in musical theatre and countless acting roles, to the more advanced work of Assistant Directing. She spent all of her formative years pursuing every theatrical
opportunity she could. Her love for writing and real story development has been with her just as long and her happy place is where those two meet in Script Writing. She loves living the adventure of her own story with her husband of 17 years, Jared, and has found her favorite role yet as Mama to their 7 incredible children. She is grateful for the chance to join the Center Stage Team from Waco, Texas.
