Masyn Bickley
Masyn is a freshman and is thrilled to be part of this production of Big Fish as the Witch. This is her third show with Spot On, and she has loved bringing such an important character to life. She especially enjoys how the Witch, despite not having much stage time centered around her, helps create the entire storyline and leaves a lasting impact on the audience. Outside of theater, she enjoys singing, listening to music, cooking, and spending time with friends and family. A fun fact about her is that she really, really, really loves the color purple. She would like to dedicate this performance to her mom, her number one supporter, who has always encouraged her to chase her dreams and become a better person every day. She hopes you enjoy the show!
