Carrigan Young

Daydreamer, Creator, Existing Loudly

Howdy, it's Carrigan! Born and raised in Waco, Tx, you can now find me living my best life at James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Va.

​

I grew up surrounded by song and dance. As a dancer herself, my mom put me in dance classes at the age of 3 and I was hooked. In elementary school, I especially loved making music with my family. My brother and I would sing while my dad played guitar, my mom played piano, and my two other brothers jammed on the bass and drums. When I got to middle school I took my first theatre class and fell in love. I knew instantly what I wanted to do with my life, and now those dreams are coming true!

​

When I am not on stage, you are most likely to find me in the kitchen cooking my favorite recipes for my friends, or in a cozy coffee shop enjoying a good fantasy or romance novel. If you ever want to get me talking, just ask me about my family! They're my rock and I would not be where I am today without their constant support.
