"Wesley Carpenter is among the most well-rounded young performers that I have had the pleasure of working with. In addition to a transcendant voice, her charismatic stage presence and well-conceived acting choices endear her to audiences of all types. I wish all actors were as well trained and as talented as Ms. Carpenter"

      I've just returned from a 9-month long contract with Royal Caribbean on the Enchantment of the Seas, which has been cruising the beautiful Caribbean. On board, I performed everything from jazz music and 70's hits to musical theatre classics and 80's pop/rock-- definitely a change of pace for me! But I have to say it was one of the most enjoyable and eye-opening contracts that I have had, and I am so thankful for that experience. I'm gearing up for my big move to New York, which I'm very excited to announce will occur within the next few weeks!

        Graduation is just around the corner here at Belmont! This final semester has already been full of excitement between giving my senior recital, filming a short film, and going to many an audition. I am thrilled to start rehearsing Chicago at Nashville Repertory Theatre this weekend where I will be playing Liz in the ensemble; performances run March 16- April 17!

 I'm working a contract at McLeod Summer Playhouse in Carbondale, IL on the campus of Southern Illinois University! I'm doing my first children's show with this playhouse- James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl. I am in the ensemble of Big River that has a score I have fallen in love with --- I also get to play Penny in Hairspray which has been on my list for a very long time!! Exciting things happening these days...
