Hayden Cavanagh

I am an aspiring musical theatre performer who is currently training full-time at Showfit Studios in Brunswick. Prior to my training, I worked with the Marriner Group as a backstage hand in their production of Midnight: A Cinderella Musical in 2023 and have performed in numerous plays with Mount Players across several years. I also studied film and television at SAE Institute and during my studies, was involved in several student films. I believe I have a unique position in this industry, as I have worked with incredibly vast groups of people in my life, both in my workspace and socially, which has ultimately helped me to communicate with others in a present, open way. This has greatly shaped my ability to discover various different types of characters and access emotions and intentions within pieces of text that I will be able to convey truthfully and playfully. I look forward to gaining more experience in the musical theatre industry, and strive to improve, learn and grow in my craft every day.
