Who's who behind the Scenes
Our Junior Theatre depends on some pretty special grown ups to make things happen. Here are the main people in charge, but we also have some awesome parents and other people who do a lot to support us and without whom our Junior Theatre wouldn't exist.
Karen Bulfin
​Founder
Karen founded Encore Junior Theatre in 2015 to provide opportunities for young people in the local area to experience the magic of theatre, learn new skills and make lifelong friends.
We were devastated when Karen passed away in 2024 but her dedication and passion lives on through our members and alumni.
We are proud to continue her legacy!
Abigail Bulfin
​Dance & Drama Tutor
Abby has been with us since the very begininng as our dance tutor, choreographer and co-director. She is passionate about all things theatre and the positive impact it can have on the lives of young people.
Faye Weston
​Vocal Coach
We were thrilled to welcome Faye as our new vocal coach in 2022 and she quickly became a much loved member of the team. Alongside teaching she is a professional singer and co-directs all of our shows.
