Chandler is a first-year B.A. student in acting. He is extremely excited to be in his first IU main stage production of Something Rotten! He formerly acted in The Lightning Thief (Grover) for Stages Bloomington, Carousel (Enoch Snow) for Sounds of South, and Beauty and the Beast (Lefou) for Sounds of South. Chandler was born and raised as a townie in Bloomington, Indiana. Before auditioning for Something Rotten!, Chandler was Psychology major, but making it into the main stage musical helped him realize that he wanted to pursue theater! Chandler enjoys writing music with friends, acting in short films made by his roommates, and hiking. His dream job is to do voice acting for popular cartoons. He's had a lot of fun with his fellow castmates, and thanks them for being such a welcoming bunch of people!
