DYLAN ON STAGE
I guess I have to thank my sister Cassidy, she got me into acting! I used to go to rehearsal with her. My very first speaking role as "Tiny Tim" was in a community theatre production of A Christmas Carol. From there, I met Tina Fitch who went on to cast me in several University of Alabama (U of A) productions whenever they needed a child performer. I got to play "Dill Harris" in Theatre Tuscaloosa's production of To Kill a Mockingbird, "Michael Darling" in Theatre Tuscaloosa's production of Peter Pan, "Buster" in the U of A's production of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, "Young Pippin" in the U of A's production of Pippin and "Billy Moore" in the U of A's production of Assassins.
By the time I was seven, I had performed with the Mississippi Boys Choir and the Hattiesburg Civic Light Opera and soon after, my mom and I moved to NY to try professional theatre. I landed the part of "Young Tarzan" in Disney's Broadway musical adaptation of Tarzan. I made my Broadway debut as "Young Tarzan" in September 2006 and appeared in a total of 169 performances until the show closed in July 2007.
