Riley Keegan is graduating from Tennessee Tech University in Spring 2026 with a Bachelor of Music in Musical Theatre Performance.

He is currently playing the Baker in Into The Woods and will be auditioning at UPTA on Friday, February 6th, 2026.

Riley began his musical theater career in an untraditional way. His junior year of high school, he was asked to play Frederic in The Pirates of Penzance and learn the role during his 25 minute lunch break. A year later, a recruiter from Tech came to promote the school and after a single masterclass, Riley was offered a full scholarship to Tech on one condition: he had to perform in the musical while playing baseball. Keegan was originally being recruited to play collegiate baseball as a Pitcher.

Once Riley came to Tech, he became very involved on campus. He held a Vice President position in his fraternity, Pi Kappa Phi. He also loves to sing barbershop, holding an International Silver Medal from the Barbershop Harmony Society. Riley is also an ordained minister through Universal Life Church!
