Isabel Smith began her career with New Hampshire Theatre Project in Grade 3 during a NHTP Artist-in-Residence program at Stratham Memorial School.  She appeared in numerous Youth Repertory Company productions and astonished audiences with her lovely portrayal of Dorothy in last year's production of An Oz Story.  Izzy was also an educational intern for both summer camps and the Junior Repertory Company.  Next year, she will be attending Endicott College and majoring in elementary education.  NHTP has been so valuable in my life.  From a young age, it taught me how to work in an ensemble, depend on others, and have others depend on me.  It also provided me with a second home, a perfect way to express myself, and relationships that will last a lifetime.
