About Caroline
Born in Southern California and raised in Minnesota, Caroline has been involved in music and theater from a young age.
Her first show was a community theater production of Annie at her alma mater, Eagan High School, directed by Dennis Swanson. She was part of the orphan ensemble, and was so enthusiastic about acting that auditions at the Children’s Theatre Company in Minneapolis soon followed. After a run at CTC as Annika in Pippi Longstocking, she was cast in a touring production of the musical The Prince and the Pauper.
Throughout high school, Caroline participated in theater, choir, and speech, winning the Minnesota state speech competition in Humorous Interpretation and earning 7th place at Nationals with her Dramatic Duo. She received comprehensive musical theater training at CTC in the Teen Intensive and Triple Threat Conservatory programs run by Matthew Howe.
Caroline briefly trained in the BFA Guthrie Actor Training program at the University of Minnesota with Ken Washington, before pursuing professional opportunities at the Guthrie, the Ordway, Theater Latté Da, Chanhassen Dinner Theatre, and other regional theaters in the Twin Cities.
After understudying Nellie Oleson in Little House on the Prairie the Musical at the Guthrie Theatre, she joined the year-long touring production of the show. Nationally, she has also been seen on the East Coast (Mary Bennet in Austen’s Pride, New York and Connecticut), and the West Coast (Lydia Bennet in Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley, Santa Barbara).
In the fall of 2019, Caroline started work on the North American tour of Disney’s Frozen, playing Princess Anna of Arendelle. She was on the road until the pandemic hit in March of 2020, then came home to Minnesota to isolate until the tour started up again in 2021.
Caroline can be seen making her Broadway debut as Maizy in the new musical comedy Shucked at the Nederlander Theatre starting March 8th 2023. She now lives in New York City with her wonderful partner Sean and their bossy yet adorable dog, Finna.
