Acting
Nurturing an impressive body of work that encompasses television, film and stage, Madison Lagares is quickly becoming one of her generation's most influential rising talents. Madison stars as Fran 'Frenchy' Facciano in "Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies" for Paramount+. Critics and television audiences first took note of Madison's natural comedic timing and portrayal as the future Pink Lady, played by the legendary Didi Conn in the 1978 film version of the beloved classic musical. At the age of 6, she was discovered in an off-broadway production of "The Wizard of Oz" and signed by a manager. From there, she immediately started working in film-sharing the screen with Liam Neeson in "A Walk Among the Tombstones." She then went on to play the daughter of Adrien Brody and Jennifer Beals in Lionsgate Premiere's thriller "Manhattan Night." Other notable roles include work on "Search Party," "Blindspot," and "Among the Beasts." A classically trained singer, the multi-hyphenate found her passion for performing at a very young age. Hand-picked by Gloria Estefan, she made her Broadway debut as Little Gloria in "On Your Feet" and later performed in the Tony Nominated "School of Rock" as 'Shonelle' and u/s for 'Tomika.' Kickstarting her solo recording career, Madison's debut single "In the Meadow" has been heard across the world in six continents. In December 2023, the singer-songwriter dropped "The Holidays," written and composed by Bailey Bass (Avatar: The Way of Water). Madison has also recently recorded an original single from Grammy and Tony Nominated Composer, Frank Wildhorn.
