Augusta Christian Schools

PRODUCTION Who's Who

Kristen Dykes

Director

As Director, Mrs. Dykes is thrilled to bring The Little Mermaid to life this year. She has loved serving at ACS for the past nine years. Her favorite part is watching students grow and achieve what they once thought impossible. Special thanks to Ms. Stephanie and Mr. Norris for joining in the fun again this year - they make the whole process even more special!
Chris Norris

Musical Director/Producer

This is Chris’ 15th yr. in his ‘part-time gig’ leading the MS-HS Chorus and as the Director of Fine Arts & Chapels. In his other life, he’s the Lead Pastor of Harvest Pointe Fellowship, husband to Jenifer, ‘Dad’ to Drew (Emma), Rachel (Jackson) & Ben, and ‘G-Pa’ to Brigham, Andi, Jones and soon-to-be TWINS, Jack and Nora! An avid gardener and jack-of-all-trades, he’s most grateful to be an encourager & influence in people's lives. To all his ‘favorite’ students…Break a Leg! Colossians 3:23
Stephanie McCullough

Choreographer

Stephanie, an Augusta Christian alumna, has choreographed for ACS Fine Arts since 2018. Favorite productions include Newsies, Shrek, Beauty and the Beast, and The Music Man. She lives in North Augusta with her husband, Anthony, and their two children, Calloway and Story Kate, and is excited to see both casts of The Little Mermaid shine on stage!
Sophia Coleman

Assistant Choreographer

Apparently, you can take the girl out of theater, but not theater out of the girl—Sophia is proof. Now a Biology major at Anderson University, she rarely finds chances for impromptu musical moments (not without being a hazard in the lab!). All joking aside, Sophia is honored to be part of this project and can’t wait to see everyone shine!
Kayla Riddle

Stage Manager

Kayla is a junior at Augusta Christian who has worked on several theater productions, and this is her first ACS musical. She attends Trinity Baptist Church and is active in ACS chorus and a morning Bible study. She thanks her family for their continual love and support and looks forward to continuing in the ACS theater program.
