Kayley Rice started dancing at the age of 5 at Pasadena Civic Ballet and fell in love with it instantly. She then joined the Inland Pacific Ballet Academy at 9 years old and participated in her first performance of IPB’s The Nutcracker as one of the Gingerbreads. Since then, she’s been in numerous seasons of IPB’s The Nutcracker and has also joined The Broadway Music Troupe and the Morning Conservatory’s Classical Program; of which she is absolutely excited to be a part of. She has also performed in the productions of IPBA’s Seussical Jr. as the Grinch and Cindy Lou Who as well as in IPBA’s Aladdin Jr. Kayley has also participated in many Academy Spring Recitals, including Swan Lake, Midsummer Night’s Dream, and Sleeping Beauty. She is grateful and humbled to be given this opportunity.
