She has also had the opportunity to choreograph shows for Malvern Prep and Willow Manor Players.

In 2021, Maureen returned to the studio as a teacher at Spot On Dance Academy in Fort Washington, PA. In 2022, she graduated from Harcum College with a degree in Interior Design. She is currently working as a Kitchen Designer in Langhorne, PA. Maureen is so grateful for the opportunity to work with so many amazing people at CEC. A huge thank you to Tom Kuchler, Melissa Schiavone, and everyone involved in producing this hilarious show. Enjoy! "I would like to dedicate this show to my mentor and friend, Marilou Cassidy. Not only did Marilou help shape me into the dancer, teacher, and person I am today, she is also the link that brought me to CEC, and a big reason why I was given this opportunity. I am so grateful to have been a small part of her story. Until we dance again, Mar..."
