A little about Morg
Read Me!!
First things first- Hey! my name is Morgan Paulson. She/Her. I’m playing the 90’s chic, giggly, wannabe grandma type, um.. person. and.. uh, yeah! This is my first time in this show… Life.
Okay, that’s out of the way.
Texas is one of those one-of-a-kind lands, and, well, that land is home for me. For better or for worse, I am a true Austinite! So if my y’alls ever get out of hand, just know - it comes from my soul. I felt like Texas was just a little too small for me, so in the summer of 2025, I adopted my official Brooklynite status! ... Brooklyn-ess?
As we speak, I’m probably mid 50 minuet commute, or in the middle of crafting up some exquisite NYC coffee for the patrons of Tribeca.
You know, I moved to pursue the arts. But like - it’s all art - if you’ve got that bug.
My first love is and will always be music. I’m consuming music at all times, and of all kinds. I've always got a pair of dinky head phones on. *Picture this* I’m skipping through crowds of stressed focused FiDi workers, but all I hear is a blend of Jack Johnson and Ski Aggu. Look, If you’re a Spotify user, let’s start a playlist. If you’re a concert go’er, I need some recks. If you make music - I will stream that shit. Music is a darn good drug AND … it’s so good for us too.
If you want a poem or sonnet, I've always got a moleskin and pen on me. But please refrain from spelling critiques. I’d throw down and quick bar for you though - no problem.
Most critical info! I’m a bigg Pieces - but if you're not into that - I’m the Enneagram 4. So both could kinda explain the sonnets and songs vibe. All in all, I’m trying my best to be grounded … but man- the clouds kinda rock.
I started Musical Theatre during the most iconic times of my generation, and you guessed it babe, … not 2016… but Covid. Still, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Life has its way of moving us around in its own time, and I’m having lots of fun with the journey.
If I could make any mission statement, I think It would be; To vomit out all the love, light, and passion that aches in my little mortal soul through amazing stories- in hopes that; in the safety of a theatre or any venue for that matter, we can collectively remember that having feelings is so weird and we get to be in that together. I love y’all.

A Christmas Carol
November 12- January 4th 2025 - 2026
A Christmas Carol at ZACH Theatre is an Austin TX staple. It’s a wonderful rendition of the classic Charles Dickens story, but with a Jukebox musical spin. This show is filled with pop songs from Miley Cyrus to Lionel Richey making the Christmas spectacle just as magical as the holidays.

Title of Show

[title of show] was some of the best work I've been a part of. Just love when real people tell real stories.
Upstage Theatre
I had the privilege of playing the wonderful Doralee Rhodes in UCO’s production of 9 to 5. It was an honor to be surrounded by amazing women and tell three different amazing storys. And who doesn't love a little Dolly Parton?
