Blake Rushing

Blake is thrilled to be back this summer to be a part of Fendig’s 1st ever virtual season. This will be Blake’s 4th summer working with Fendig. Blake choreographed Fendig’s 2015 production of Mary Poppins and directed Fendig’s 2018 and 2019 productions of Disney’s Newsies and The Hunchback of Notre Dame. 

Blake currently lives in New York City, and recently finished working as the Child Talent Assistant for the 1st season of The Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo and the 51st season of Sesame Street.  Blake and the Fendig team have worked very hard to bring you this unique virtual experience, and he can’t wait to continue teaching the young performers of Rensselaer this summer. ​​
