Justin Ly (Mr Barrows/Mr Carrisford)

Theater has always been a part of Chris' life in some shape or form. Over the past few
years, he has had the privilege of participating in a few musical productions that have
greatly enriched his artistic journey. His most recent show was “9-5, The Musical.” and “Annie,” Additionally, Chris' experience extends into film, where he recently worked on the short films “Summertime” and
& Dreams and gaining valuable insights into the nuances of on-screen acting and the
importance of visual storytelling. These experiences have not only solidified his passion for the performing arts but have also equipped me with diverse skills that he hopes to continue utilizing in future projects. He looks forward to being a part of the 413 theater group!
