KALIXTA EASTERWOOD

 

Kalixta Easterwood graduated Fall of 2025 with a BFA in Theatre, Acting Concentration from the University of West Georgia. Along with her degree she also graduated with a Musical Theatre Certificate, a 17-credit hour certificate housed in the UWG Theatre and Music programs.

​

During her training at the University of West Georgia, she was nominated for the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship for her roles in Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley (Mary Bennet) by Lauren Gunderson, Fuddy Meers (Claire) by David Lindsay-Abaire, and Animal Farm (Squealer) adapted by Ian Wooldridge, and The One-Act Play That Goes Wrong by Henry Lewis, Henry Shields, Jonathan Sayer (Sandra). ​

​

Recently, this Spring Kalixta was apart of Carroll County Community Theatre's production of The Addams Family  and took on the role of an ancestor! In the Fall of 2025, she was apart of UWG's production of Tiny Tim's Christmas Carol  by Jack Ludwig & Ken Ludwig. 

​​

In addition to the diverse roles Kalixta has been cast in at UWG, she also landed the role of the iconic Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago, for Carrollton Repertory Theatre (CRT)! This role allowed her to put into practice her abilities as a triple threat.

​

Kalixta has learned a lot from each role she has taken on. From perfecting a Standard English accent to flipping upside while being hoisted up in the air! Her favorite motto during a show is, "The show must go on!"
