At ROE, she serves as parent coordinator and creative producer — keeping each production moving behind the scenes, coordinating families and volunteers, and making sure every detail is in place so our young performers can shine. Her goal is simple: to give every child a supportive, well-run space to discover their voice, build confidence, and fall in love with the stage.
Amanda Adwers brings over 15 years of experience in Houston's theater community and is excited to step into the role of director for ROE Theater Club.

Her broad understanding of how productions come together allows her to create a well-organized, engaging, and supportive environment where young performers can build confidence and thrive. Amanda is excited to inspire students through the joy of live theater.
