She is looking forward to her final senior show at CCM in April as the character “Adult Woman” in Spring Awakening. Delaney began singing and accompanying herself on the piano at the age of 10. She is passionate about all art forms, not just performing on the stage. In her free time, she works on writing her own music, choreographing, going to the practice rooms, and cultivating her piano skills. During the Pandemic, while the theatre was non-essential, Delaney switched her focus towards pursuing her minor and studying human relations and how the brain works. She has found that her connections on and off the stage have grown immensely. Delaney is excited to share the stage once again with her Mom and she would like to give thanks and praise to God, Hayes, Mom, Dad, McKinley + Mackenzie for their unending love.
