Original Creative Team

Heather Cullen, a founder and principal of the Windsor Performing Arts Academy. (est. 2009) This non-profit organization teaches children and adults the joys of drama, dance, music, art, and performance. Twice a year we put on musicals in the Windsor Unified School District using their students and at no cost to the school.  Our once a year fundraiser is the Windsor Talent Show which encourages Seniors, adults, youth and children to come together as a community and perform for each other.  During the summer we execute a three week musical camp which ends in three community performances.  Every year I mentor 6 to 9 Windsor High School Seniors and Juniors for their required Sr. or Jr. projects.

Madeline Daniels has been dancing since she was two years old and has studied Ballet, Modern, Jazz and, Hip-Hop. She has studied dance throughout Sonoma County. She danced throughout high school, and received her BA in Theater Arts with a concentration in Dance at Sonoma State University in 2016. She looks forward to expanding her dancing, choreography, and teaching skills as she continues to train and teach children of all ages.
