With only stage act— ing experience on her resume. Moore. a 2002 UK grad. thought she would be overlooked. Producers definitely did not overlook Moore — they gave her a pan the same day that she audi— tioned and wrote a recun'ing role into the script for her. “It's so unusual that I got this pan because I don‘t have any other film or TV credits." Moore said. “But the casting director had seen me prior to the audition and had really talked tne up to produc- ers." What made Moore’s accomplishment even more astounding is that she was auditioning after a weekend road trip across the country and had got~ ten only three hours of sleep the night before. “It‘s amazing that I got the pan the same day," Moore said. “I almost couldn‘t believe it." Producers enjoyed Moore‘s audition so much that they made room in the show for her. said Nan- cy Jones. the chair of UK‘s theater department and a former teacher of Moore. "What a lot of people probably won‘t realize is that this part was written in for Angel." Jones said. Even though Moore's recent success came with some surprise to her. Jones knew she was would someday be a star. “Angel is one of the few actors that I‘ve seen that has all of the right pieces working together for her." Jones said. “She has always been destined for stardom." Moore. who was raised in Lexington and re— ceived a full academic scholarship to UK. graduat— ed with a degree in theater. While at UK. she was in several productions. beginning her first semester of college in I998 when Jones cast her in the musical “Pippin." “As soon as I got to school. I couldn‘t wait to be in UK's shows." Moore said. "It was really ex— citing to get my first part." During Moore‘s time at UK. she excelled in every show she was in. Jones said.
