Jenna Rich has been acting and singing since the age of three. Her love for the theatre began with a trip to NYC with her grandparents to see Beauty and the Beast at the age of five. She is the creator of Belle the Ballpark Diva, a Buffalo Bisons (Minor League baseball team) mascot, and wrote her signature song, 100% Girl. For the past two summers, she attended SOCAPA (The School of Cinema and Performing Arts) in New York City where she starred in student-produced short films and took classes on improv, monologues, and audition technique. In her spare time, she takes voice lessons, reads, travels, and tries to squeeze in as much theatre in a week as possible. Her favorite lead role in a school production has been Adelaide in Guys and Dolls. She is currently a freshman in high school in Buffalo, NY.

Anyone who knows me knows that I adore MEMPHIS. Back in 2011, I had the opportunity to see the show on Broadway and I met the fantastical Chad Kimball. Later that year, I went to see the Direct from Broadway showings at my local movie theater (yes, I went 3 times). You could say I'm a bit obsessed. Now here I am, a year later at the first National Tour cast's party in my hometown of Buffalo, NY.
