Caitlin Ehlinger was born and raised in Houston, Texas. She started dancing at the age of 3 and trained at Suzanne Semans Studio. At the age of 10, she joined Miss Susie's annual trip to NYC for privates and classes at Broadway Dance Center, Steps on Broadway and Alvin Ailey.
As a high school senior, Caitlin planned to move to New York City in Fall 2015 to begin a gap year (or two) of training and auditions. Before graduation, in February 2015, she convinced her parents to fly her to NYC to audition at the 42nd Street open call. She had a great sales pitch: since the 8th grade, her dream was to postpone college and dance for choreographer Randy Skinner in a national tour.
Caitlin was honored, thrilled (and amazed!) to live her dream of dancing for choreographer Randy Skinner ... as Peggy Sawyer in the 42nd Street 2015-16 National Tour!
After an exciting year touring the US, Caitlin moved to NYC in Fall 2016.
