Meet the Cast of A Christmas Carol's Past: Lauren Ellsworth

Meet Lauren Ellsworth (now Frederiksen)

I was Martha Cratchit in 2008! A Christmas Carol was my favorite show I ever did when I was younger because I got to be in it with my Mom, Vivian Ellsworth, who was a cast member and one of the carolers for years. I went to college at Brigham Young University, majoring in public health with a minor in music education, and then to dental hygiene school at Utah Valley University. I work full-time as a dental hygienist in Meridian, Idaho. I sing at Church, and in both Church and community choirs. I am always singing - at work, in the car, at home! I am getting certified to teach yoga, and my introduction to yoga was my "Dad" Tobin Hissong in the rehearsal room! Even though I was only in the show one year, the "Christmas Carol" winters where my Mom was in it were some of my favorite memories from growing up in Michigan.
