A Southern California native, Megan Crockett is no stranger to the arts. From an early age, it was clear that singing was more than just a hobby. From elementary school through college, she sang in multiple choirs ranging from an all-women’s barbershop quartet, to large SATB choirs, to intimate madrigal groups. And it was only a matter of time before acting was introduced into her life and quickly added to the list of things she most passionately wanted to do.
From then on, Megan took on any job she could to learn more about the theatrical world. Her two favorite behind-the-scenes jobs were wig/hair design and stage management, both of which were her reasons for interning at California Music Circus in Sacramento. After that, it was a battle between stage management and acting for the number-one spot. Instead of giving up one or the other, Megan has opted to strike a delicate balance between the two. Whether on stage or off, she is always prepared to do whatever a production needs.
Her work in stage management put her on the cover of the April 2014 edition of LA Weekly. Due to this wonderful story highlighting “The Most Important, Invisible Person in the Theater,” Megan has been able to share her story and experiences as a guest speaker on college campuses, including her alma mater, California State University Northridge.
Megan has performed in Gilbert and Sullivan classics The Mikado (twice!), H.M.S. Pinafore and Ruddigore, along with Rogers and Hammerstein’sCarousel, Sondheim's Side by Side by Sondheim, The Academy for New Musical Theatre's 15 Minutes Musicals, an ANMT workshop of Rapunzel, and the world-premiere stage adaptation of Forbidden Zone Live in the Sixth Dimension.
It isn’t all just musical theatre, though. Megan has appeared in Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew, Watson: The Last Great Tale of the Legendary Sherlock Holmes, and the late-night-hit-turned-Fringe-Festival-favorite Magnum Opus Theatre (Winner of Best Ensemble in the 2010 San Francisco Fringe Festival). She can also be seen performing multiple crazy characters in another late-night hit, Serial Killers.
Megan holds a BA in Theatre Arts from California State University Northridge, is a proud associate member of the Sacred Fools Theater, and continues to reside in Los Angeles.
