When Adriana Scalice was a high school student in Rochester, NY, she did not expect to end up in Texas. But after a series of serendipitous auditions and connections made between San Marcos and her hometown high school, she wound up enrolled at Texas State.
“It was the best decision I’ve ever made,” Scalice said. “Once I was there, I kept thinking, ‘Wow, I really did win the lottery.”
Scalice, who graduated in May with a BFA in Musical Theater and a Minor in Spanish, is currently on tour with the Broadway Across America’s production of “Mean Girls” where she is the standby for main character Cady Heron; main antagonist, Regina George; and the “generally-awesome” high-school rebel, Janis Sarkisian. As a member of the standby cast, Scalice has to be ready at a moment’s notice to step on stage to play a wide range of characters.
