When Morgan Siobhan Green ’14 was in her first year at ������ý��Ƶ, she secured the leading role in the fall production of “Little Shop of Horrors.” In an interview at the time, she celebrated BU’s vast opportunities for skill building. “Regardless of the situation, coming to ������ý��Ƶ prepares you for the stage,” she said.

In the years since, Siobhan Green has performed on Broadway, toured nationally, and worked in television and new musical development. She’s coming back to campus this summer as an instructor for the ������ý��Ƶ Arts and Tech Camp.

She is brimming with ideas to share with her campers, and says the experiences will be tailor-made for each student. “They’ll leave with an experience that is special to who is in the room. I believe those are the experiences that stick with you and keep you coming back for more,” she said.

Training Ground

As a student, Siobhan Green was able to travel to The Globe Theatre in London. She and her fellow study abroad students had the pleasure of training and watching performances at The Globe, after which they performed The Tempest at three universities across Illinois. Unfortunately, tragedy was in the air.

“My uncle had just died, and the weekend the show was coming to ������ý��Ƶ, my grandfather died,” Siobhan Green said. “I remember being so distraught, stressed, and completely overwhelmed with the weight of life, and also the parallel weight my character, Ariel, experienced in the show. I learned the power of theater during that time.”

The following year, Siobhan Green would join the ������ý��Ƶ Speech Team, taking each new challenge, big and small, with grace and curiosity. As she would later say in , “You’re the only person who can walk your path. It’s so easy to look to the left and to the right and feel like you’re missing out or someone has more than you. Life changes in a millisecond. So stay the course.”

Staying the Course

Nowadays, Siobhan Green’s days are divided into teaching high school theatre, performing, dog parenting, and plenty more. She’s been on Broadway in “Be More Chill,” toured nationally in “Hadestown,” appeared in (), and writes competitive speeches for speech teams all over the country.

“So many of the opportunities and relationships I have made in the industry have stemmed from growing into the best version of myself at ������ý��Ƶ, instead of striving to fit in some pre-determined mold,” she said.

Siobhan Green hopes that by coming back to ������ý��Ƶ, she can share the virtues of collaboration, preparation, empathy, and the understanding that there are infinite ways to pursue a career, and success looks different for everyone.

“It’s hard to imagine who I’d be without having made the choice to come to ������ý��Ƶ during those formative years,” she said. “I learned so much about myself here, and so much of that came from the guest artists I had the immense pleasure of learning from. It’s crucial that those who find success come back and show others the way. I don’t come back to say it’s easy, I come back to show that it’s possible.”
