James Mott (Friedrich von Trapp) is thrilled for this opportunity to take the stage as Friedrich. His love of theatre has been growing through the roles he has been blessed to play. Earlier this year he took the stage as Michael Banks in the 2024 EAHS production of Mary Poppins. Credits include School of Rock (James/Band Security at Hershey Area Playhouse), Children of Eden (young Abel at Susquehanna Stage), James and the Giant Peach Jr. (James at Elizabethtown Area Middle School). In addition to theater, James enjoys playing the guitar and drum kit. James is an awesome brother to his 5 sisters and 1 little brother.
