Elliot Watts | Music / Performing Arts

My name is Elliot Watts, and I am a 17 year old Bay of Plenty local who has a passion for Musical Theatre.
My love for performing began at a young age, participating in hip-hop dance shows, school plays, my intermediate school’s Performing Arts Academy for 2 years, and local performing arts competitions (I am a 2025 National Youth Performer Awards nominee for Speech & Drama and Musical Theatre). These early experiences sparked my deep passion for musical theatre—I live and breathe the performing arts. For many years, I’ve been actively involved in community theatre and have taken lessons across different performance disciplines; singing, acting, and dance. It is the most enjoyable and fulfilling part of my life, from the friendships formed and the diverse people I get to perform with, to the learning opportunities from directors and performers of all ages and backgrounds. I consider every chance to perform a privilege and always give 100% of my time, energy, and focus, as it deserves.
