Into the Woods Creative

Director
Terri MooreTerri is the founder of Amaryllis Studios. It began as just an acting studio, but in 2024, her youngest daughter gave her the push and inspiration she needed to produce and direct a summer musical, Chess, as a staged concert. Into the Woods is the third summer musical Amaryllis has produced having done Godspell last summer. Outside of shows done with the studio, Terri has directed Anything Goes, A Christmas Carol, and HTC's One Act Festival. Terri is beyond excited to bring you her interpretation of this magical show. She wishes to thank her family for all of their support, especially her 2 daughters, Georgi and Leanna, whom you will see in this production, her son-in-law, Scott, who works tirelessly at anything asked of him to make this theatrical family's "wishes" come true and her sister, Jenna, who has seen every show she has acted in and directed. Lastly, to P. - I'm so glad you are able to see this one!
