Okanagan born and raised, Ryley grew up in a very musical family and was forced into piano lessons from a young age, which lead to his love of music. Throughout his school years he branched out and learned trumpet, drums, ukulele and eventually guitar. His dad’s cassette tapes influenced his musical taste in a big way. Today he plays mostly 60’s & 70’s hits; The Eagles, Eric Clapton, Jim Croce, and lots of Simon & Garfunkel. His passion for guitar began roughly 7 years ago, and it’s becoming an obsession over that time. It’s a hobby he truly loves and find a lot of joy in sharing with whoever will listen.

Shuswap Theatre’s Youth Musical Theatre Program is proud to present: Getting to Know: Once Upon a Mattress

Many moons ago in a far-off place, Queen Aggravain decreed no couples could marry until her son, Prince Dauntless, found a bride. Princesses came from far and wide to win the hand of the prince, but none could pass the impossible tests given to them by the Queen. That is, until the “shy” swamp princess, Winnifred the Woebegone, showed up. Would she be able to pass the Sensitivity Test, marry her prince and help Lady Larkin and Sir Harry to the altar? Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the classic tale The Princess and the Pea provides some side-splitting shenanigans. After all, a princess is a delicate thing.
