Celebration of Music - Talent Search

Aidan McCracken is honored to be a part of Celebration of Music. He is a high honor roll 8th grader at Loveland Middle School in Cincinnati, Ohio. He began playing the piano at age seven, but his performing experience began at the early age of two, when he was asked to be a model for New View Models & Talent. He has been in commercials and ads, most notably for Mead Trapper Keeper and Pampers. Aidan was a member of the Cincinnati Boychoir and takes voice and music training. Aidan first appeared on stage as Jeremiah Potts in the musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at The Children’s Theatre of Mason. He has been in several productions at The Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park as well. The Playhouse became a second home to Aidan, where he has twice taken on the role of Peter Cratchit in A Christmas Carol, once as the part of Ignorance in A Christmas Carol, and the role of Jem in To Kill a Mockingbird. Other theatre credits include Eugene Fodor in Crazy For You through the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music, and Genie in Disney’s Aladdin Jr. (which is currently playing at his school)!

In addition to playing the piano, singing, and acting, Aidan plays baseball for the Loveland Express and soccer for the Loveland Storm. He has been playing both sports for almost ten years. In his free time, Aidan enjoys being with his friends and family and cheering on the Cincinnati Reds. He loves taking cruises, traveling to Disney, and vacationing at his family’s lake house.
