A Little Bit About Abby

My name is Alexa Young

Abby grew up moving all over the country in a military family, so walking into new rooms and figuring things out quickly became second nature. That ability to adapt and to really pay attention to the people around her is something she carries into every room she’s in.

 

​

She’s drawn to contemporary musicals that feel honest and emotionally grounded. Abby loves playing women who are layered and self-aware, characters who might seem strong on the outside but are navigating something deeper underneath. At the same time, she loves getting to be playful. Whether it’s sharp comedic timing, physicality, or leaning fully into the fun of a role, she’s just as energized by humor and joy as she is by emotional depth. She cares deeply about collaboration and specificity, and she genuinely loves the process of building something piece by piece with people she trusts.

 

​

Abby is currently finishing her BFA in Musical Theatre at The University of Alabama, graduating in Spring 2026. She splits time between Alabama and Austin, Texas, and is open to wherever the work takes her.

 

​

Outside of theatre, she plays drums, not expertly but enthusiastically, builds miniature houses for fun, and can lose an embarrassing amount of time to RuPaul’s Match Game. She’s drawn to strong aesthetics, thoughtful spaces, and stories that feel alive.
