Aléna Watters fell in love with musical theatre as a child in the West End, while her family was stationed in England with her father’s service in the United States Air Force. Since graduating from University of Northern Colorado with her BA in Musical Theatre/Acting, she has had the privilege & pleasure of professionally entertaining audiences across the globe. Watters had the honor of being named the youngest recipient of UNCo's Alumni Association's Creative Achievement Award.
Aléna's Broadway credits include the 2009 revival of West Side Story, The Addams Family, the beloved Tony nominated musical Sister Act, The Cher Show, Mrs. Doubtfire and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Bad Cinderella.
In 2007, Aléna had the privilege as one of the fabulous Harlettes (backup singer/dancers) for the 'Divine Miss M' herself, Bette Midler, for a concert at the New York Metropolitan Opera House and also did some work on Bette's Las Vegas extravaganza, The Showgirl Must Go On. In 2010 Aléna debuted a solo act, Sass & Fabulousness, at the Laurie Beechman Theatre, which was filmed in part for the critically acclaimed documentary The Standbys.
In 2013, Aléna became a member of the USO Show Troupe, and she has performed around the world to bring joy & lift the spirits of our troops & their families; coming from a military family, this work has a special place in her heart.
