Mackenzie Ziegler has made her way from the dance studio to the Broadway stage.
Ziegler, now 22, who first became known during her time on Dance Moms at just seven years old, will be starring as Charmion in & Juliet, the production announced on Tuesday.
In the time since audiences first came to know Ziegler, in the show that aired on Lifetime from 2011-2019, she’s established herself as an actress and singer who now goes by Kenzie.
Melissa Gisoni, Kenzie’s mom, who also starred on the show and now hosts a podcast recapping the fan-favorite program, took to social media to congratulate her daughter on her latest venture.
“Incredibly proud that Kenzie is joining the cast of & Juliet on Broadway! Her Broadway debut — what a dream come true!” she shared on Facebook.
Kenzie will be taking the stage from September 15th through November 1st. Dance Moms followed students of Abby Lee Miller‘s competition dance studio, which included Ziegler and her sister Maddie, and the drama that ensued among their mothers. Kenzie was the youngest of the dancers, with her age often becoming a source of a storyline.

Kenzie isn’t the only Dance Moms alum to hit the theater this year. In April Nia Sioux starred in Off-Broadway’s 11 to Midnight alongside Secret Lives of Mormon Wives alum Conner Leavitt. Maddie has also gone on to have a career in the arts, dancing alongside Sia in her music videos and starring in several films.
JoJo Siwa, perhaps the breakout star of the show, also has her own music career as a teen pop icon and appeared on Dancing with the Stars in 2021.
And while the girls have seemed to go their separate ways, a few reunited earlier this year to celebrate the wedding of co-star Brooke Hyland. Kenzie, Sioux, Kendall Vertes, Chloe Lukasiak, Kalani Hilliker, along with a few of their mothers, were all in attendance to celebrate the big day. ?
