Carrie Mikuls is a graduate from the University of California, Riverside with her BA in Dance. She is the creator of I Came To Make Noise, a hip hop theatre feminist production that challenges the stereotype that women are expected to be quiet and agreeable. Through dance, beatbox and spoken word, 3 women share their fears, faults and journeys to self-awareness. Never again asking permission but speaking with vision in the first person: I am enough, I am brave, I am an American. Carrie was a recipient of the 2018 Hollywood Fringe Festival Scholarship for Underrepresented Groups. I Came To Make Noise was the recipient of The Encore Producers’ Award and Nominee for the 2Cents Distinctive Voices Award.   Carrie performed in DEBUSSY: Pelleas et Melisande, with the LA Philharmonic at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. She danced for modern opera company, The Industry, in the unprecedented mobile opera, Hopscotch. Carrie danced with Los Angeles based dance company Stretch Dance Company from 2013-2014. She strongly believes that art can be used to push boundaries beyond our wildest imaginations.
