Alison "Ally" Wills is a young adult who grew up in Maine and then now she lives in New York. When she was growing up she became one of the most known dancer in many of the companies in her area. Ally won many awards from her companies for stage presence and leadership. Alison moved to New York for college and met some of her closet friends there. She went to  Manhattan school of the arts, where she saw her friend Melissa who she went to high school with. She also met her friends Madeline, Lindsey, Isabelle and many others who were interested in the same things as she was. Growing up in a town where not a lot of theatre was really difficult for her besides the fact she grew up traveling back and forth between her hometown and New York. She enjoyed spending time with her family when she wasn't auditioning or performing.

         She had 6 sisters and one brother. Alison has three older sisters, one twin sister and two younger sisters and a younger brother. Her older siblings weren't interested in the same stuff as her at all. When Alison was heading off to college so was her twin sister. They both wanted to go to school to study completely different things. Alison wanted to study theatre and her sister Alexandra wanted to study something with horses, so Alexandra went to school in Tennessee while Alison studied theatre in New York. Her oldest sister was named Diana who studied to become a nurse, then her other older sister  Loren went to school to become a teacher. Her sister that was just a year and a half older than her was Jessica who was going to school to become a professional musician. Ally's two younger sisters name were Leslie who was a junior in high school back home in Maine and her youngest sister Rachel who was a freshman in high school. Her brother's name was Matthew "Matt". Matt was actually a senior in high school.

         Each sibling had their own interests, however every sibling was very supportive of the others. They all went to visit each other. They spent every holiday together back home in Maine every year. When they went back home for each holiday they would play family games and hung out with friends that were still in school back home. When one of their siblings had an important event the whole family would drop everything to support them.

            When Ally was first moving to New York she was terrified. She had to pick and chose her things to take with her because there was limited space in her apartment. On her first day of her second  year of college she had to go to the scheduling and when she went to scheduling she found out that she was rooming with her best friend Lindsey who she had met last year in college. Ally got to her dorm to find Lindsey already there. Lindsey screamed "Ally". The two girls were so happy they were rooming together for the year. Both of the girls lived on opposite sides of the east coast. Lindsey lived in Florida and Ally lived in Maine when they were on break. They always enjoyed each other's company at school. They found out they had almost every class together. The two girls would always try to hangout.

Knowing how much Alison loved performing her parents Jackson and Courtney were always ready to make a move to benefit what she wanted to do and be happy. Her parents never wanted to see their children unhappy. Living near New York was a bonus for Alison growing up because when their was a free weekend she would get a few friends together to go watch a show together. Every time she would go see a show Ally would text her friends who were in the show to see if they wanted to meet after the show for dinner somewhere. Ally wanted to become one of the main leads in a show since she was little.
