BEN VAN DIJK
Ben Van Dijk has been active in theater since he was 4 years old, thanks to Palm Canyon Theatre. In Ben’s words, “I essentially grew up at PCT, performing in eighteen musicals from the age of 4 to 16. The people at PCT are my extended family, and I credit them with introducing me to what has become my passion.” In addition, Ben branched out and was cast in a production with College of the Desert at the McCallum Theatre. He then joined Musical Theatre University and has had lead roles with them as well. Through his hard work and focus, Ben has become triple threat, even learning to dance “on the job.” Ben’s talent was also recognized with awards. He won the Lucie Arnaz Awards, which sent him to the Jimmy Awards in New York City. Ben’s plans include going to college in New York City and auditioning for Broadway.
