My name is Hayley Shipley and I am a graduate from Southern Methodist University’s BFA Theatre program. I’m a proud member of the LGBTQ+ Community and theatre has given me the opportunity to be who I am truthfully; I want to spend my career bringing this freedom of expression to others. Some of the shows I’ve been in include We Are Proud to Present a Presentation About the Herero of Namibia, Formerly Known as Southwest Africa, From the German Sudwestafrika, Between the Years 1884–1915; We the Invisibles; The Seagull; Measure for Measure; Much Ado About Nothing; and The Merchant of Venice.
