Ethan Ramos was a beacon of light and joy. To know him was to love him. His deep love for all things theatre was contagious. He could often be found singing a Broadway song, tap dancing, and scouring the Music Theatre International website to see what shows local theatres were planning to produce before their seasons were announced. As a student blogger for BroadwayWorld, Ethan shared insights on balancing academics and theatre and showcased his leadership and service-oriented heart. He was kind to everyone, always making sure people felt included and had a place in the world. He believed in lifting others up, offering second chances, and creating opportunities for those who might not have had them otherwise. In his honor, Ethan’s family has established a scholarship fund to help others "Live Like Ethan," ensuring that more young artists have the chance to pursue their dreams—just as he did—with love, kindness, an open heart, and a radiant smile.
