Maxwell Gorraiz

There are several qualities that attribute to Max’s success in my program: he is
passionate, gracious, risk-taking, humble, intuitive, talented and tenacious. Max walks
into the classroom (or rehearsal room) every day with a smile on his face, ready to work.
He truly desires to learn, and therefore willingly takes any constructive criticism,
direction, and ideas that his mentors give him as an opportunity to better himself and his
craft.
In addition to his willingness and desire for growth, Max is an inherently talented young
man. He has incredible instincts on the stage as an actor, as well as immense musical
talent. Max is also a natural comedian with impeccable timing. I have cast Max in a huge
variety of roles, and he has taken each part, big or small, and created characters that
surpass my expectations as his director and music director.
