Theresa Molina-Slaiman
Teaching Artist
Theresa is excited to be a part of Encore Stage and Studio for another year! Theater has been a passion of hers for most of her life which began in her hometown of Texas. Being involved in the theater community for over 10 years had given her the experience that she brings to Encore. She especially loves working with the youth because it is pure joy to witness their journey! In Arizona, working for Art and Sol, Children’s theater was amazing because working with the kids on Lion King and Annie was fantastic! As a Teaching Artist, she enjoys the entire process, the auditions, choreography, and the performance! Looking forward to this years summer camp!
