A teen who attends a performing arts academy in Plano booked a regular role in an Apple TV series
The singer, actress and former gymnast trains, performs at North Texas Performing Arts Academy Conservatory.
Now, the 18-year-old who lives in McKinney but commutes throughout the week to Plano, where she is a standout at the North Texas Performing Arts Academy Conservatory, was booked for a role as a series regular in an upcoming, undisclosed Apple TV show. Reid only started taking her performing career seriously in eighth grade, when she applied and auditioned for the inaugural class at NTPA, which accepts fewer than 100 students annually.Derived from the Plano Children’s Theatre, founded by Sarah Egleston Akers in 1991, NTPA is a non-profit organization that provides youth ages 5-18 in Collin, Dallas and Tarrant counties with tools to develop performing arts and life skills.
In 2014, Reid’s family moved to North Texas from northern Virginia in search of a lower cost of living and a strong landscape for youth sports and activities. The singer competed in gymnastics from age 3-13, and her siblings played soccer.Reid decided to end her gymnastics career and found herself searching for another passion.
“People actually thought I was a guy, so I guess I did my job,” Reid said. “There were definitely times where I didn’t want to do it anymore. … I just didn’t feel like I could make it believable.”
