May YP of the Month
May’s YP of the Month is one of those young performers whose energy is so overwhelmingly positive that she makes every rehearsal hall better just for her presence. She’s been with CYPT since 2015, and we’ve loved having her on our stages ever since. We’ve also been fortunate to have her working behind the scenes as a musician and sound designer, but regardless of whether she’s onstage or off, she always brings focus, dedication, and creative spirit to every project she works on. We love her very much. And who is this cheerful, charming, and cherished creator of characters and chords? May’s YP of the Month is none other than,
Natalia Cortes!!!
For the following three seasons, Natalia was fortunate enough to have participated in seven productions with Calgary Young People’s Theatre and to play a multiplicity of roles. From a sassy shopkeeper to a ghastly witch, she tackled quite the variety of wacky roles. Furthermore, Natalia was provided the opportunity to work as a musical collaborator and to explore the world of sound design.
Natalia is so incredibly grateful for this company, and for its vital role in shaping her both as a person and a performer. She is truly appreciative of all the amazing projects she has been able to do with CYPT over the last couple of years and cannot wait to continue her journey with this wonderful company.
“Acting is such an exciting personal craft. It has allowed me to access quite a compelling range of emotions that I never would’ve thought to explore otherwise.”
-Natalia Cortes
