Miss Becca
Becca classifies
her self as a dreamer. When she moved to Chicago in 2010, she dared to dream
that she would find a rewarding career working with children. Bubbles Academy
was the first place she applied!
With a
degree in theatre from Western Kentucky University, Becca brought stories to
life on stage and performances to schools across Kentucky as a teaching artist
with Lexington Children’s Theatre. As the Program Director at Bubbles Academy,
Becca leads the development and teaching of our curriculum — from art projects,
to games to imagination activities and more in order to spark our students’
creativity and nurture their growth.
Becca has a
trusty stead — her yellow bicycle named Carmen Banana Bike! You can trust her
to make masterful cardboard boats, cartwheel on demand and always accept an
invitation to play!
Miss Sam
Originally
from Novi, Michigan, Sam came to Chicago to earn her bachelor of fine arts in
acting from The Theatre School at DePaul University. She discovered a passion for
youth theatre and has been privileged to work with the Tony Award winning
Minneapolis Children’s Theatre Company, The Chicago Children’s Theatre Company,
Emerald City Theatre Company and Theatre-Hikes. Sam’s most cherished theatrical experience was
The Chicago Children’s Theatre Company’s installation for children with autism
and their families; The Red Kite Project.
Sam comes
from a long line of teachers, and she is thrilled to continue the tradition at
Bubbles Academy. She enthusiastically leads both our enrichment and education
series classes as a charismatic guide for first-time preschoolers, an
adventurous captain for imagination students and an extraordinaire in crafty
projects for Art + Music classes.
Sam’s
creative spirit never shuts off. She is an avid reader, writer, performer and
#1 playmate of her pet chihuahua — Chewbacca.
