Ryanne Itani

Ryanne demonstrated a love for performing at a very early age, finding an audience wherever she went and putting on impromptu performances. However, it was at age 4, after watching High School Musical for the first time, that she knew exactly what she wanted to do. Captivated by the big song and dance numbers, she begged her mom to let her "be like those kids" in the movie, even crying herself to sleep that night. It wasn't long after that she would attend her first theatre camp and cement her love of performing. Since that time, Ryanne has appeared in almost 2 dozen musicals. Some of her favorite roles include Annie, Matilda, Baby June, and Amaryllis in the Music Man. Although Musical Theatre is still a big part of her life, Ryanne shifted her focus to TV/Film and has used her time more recently to hone her craft. She enjoys comedy and drama equally and enjoys playing all sorts of different characters. In addition to acting and singing, Ryanne also plays the piano and bass guitar. An "old soul", Ryanne loves music from the 60s thru the 90s (she is a HUGE Beatles fan) and watching classic movies. When not performing, Ryanne loves reading, writing, researching, drawing, and exploring new places. She also enjoys skiing, swimming, tubing, and going to theme parks. Most of all, though, she loves spending time with her younger brother, Samir, her flock of chickens, and her adorable Yorkies, Spike and Bentley.
