Elizabeth Gillies

Gillies started her career in the field of acting when she was just 12 years old after which she began going to open castings at the locality. Her first appearances were in commercials with companies like Virgin Mobile. Gillies debut television appearance was as a character who appeared on three seasons from The Black Donnellys. Gillies has said that she was not permitted to see the program in entirety since her parents believed the show was inappropriate for her at the time. There were little roles in The Clique Harold and Locker 504 during 2008. The summer before, Ariana, who would later star in Victorious alongside her, was chosen to play alongside her in Lucy for an Goodspeed Production in Jason Robert Brown's 13 musical. That identical year, the musical 13 which was the very first Broadway musical that was entirely composed of teens, moved to Broadway. The two most popular songs she sang, "Opportunity", and "It cannot be true" was followed by smaller roles on songs like "Hey Kendra", "Getting Ready" and "The title track. Gillies continued to work with the show until it was ended on January 4, 2009.
