Entertainment Spotlight: Julia Lester, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series
Los Angeles native Julia Lester has been working professionally since the age of five. Some of her television credits include recurring roles on the comedy Mom, Prince of Peoria, and Mr. Student Body President. She has performed in dozens of local and regional musical productions including Carrie: The Musical and Next to Normal. Lester plays E.J.'s cousin, Ashlyn, an "old soul" who worships Sara Bareilles and is an aspiring songwriter on the sly. Julia took time out of her busy schedule to answer some questions:
Describe the role of Ashlyn in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series.
Ashlyn is a true old soul, hippie at heart with an affinity for crystals and songwriting. She definitely likes to keep herself as a middleman. She wants to be friends with everyone and just wants peace and happiness between all her classmates. Slightly introverted, Ashlyn keeps her talents hidden but is open to learning how to be more confident!
What is your favorite line of hers (without any spoilers)?
My favorite line is “I’m dying. I’m deceased. Yes.”
What’s the most memorable thing that happened (so far!) while shooting High School Musical: The Musical: The Series?
Some of my favorite memories are jamming and singing with the whole cast in between takes. Some people bust out instruments and we all join together and rock out!
Did you keep anything from set (or is there anything from set that you’d like to keep)?
I love getting to keep props from shows! I got a light up “E” for East High, and then I hope to keep some of my character’s crystals. There are also East High Drama shirts we wore and I would love to have a keepsake of one of them!
Have you ever been starstruck? If so, who was it?
I met Danielle Brooks after seeing her perform in The Color Purple on Broadway, and I SOBBED. MY. EYES. OUT. She’s incredible!
Thanks, Julia! Catch High School Musical: The Musical: The Series on Disney+, and stay tuned for the rest of the HSMTMTS Spotlights, going live all week right here!
