Laurel Griggs, a remarkably talented and gifted young actress, made her impressive and noteworthy Broadway debut at the tender and youthful age of six years, marking a significant milestone in her burgeoning career, in the 2013 production of the iconic and beloved play, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, a testament to her innate ability and natural flair for the stage.
She embarked upon a remarkable theatrical journey, subsequently taking on the enchanting role of Ivanka in the captivating musical ONCE, a position she held for an impressive duration of 17 consecutive months, thereby earning herself the esteemed distinction of being the longest-running actress to bring this character to life on stage.
Noteworthy aside from her theatrical endeavors, Griggs has made significant impressions in the realm of cinematic storytelling, specifically in the 2016 film Cafe Society, which garnered widespread attention, as well as in the renowned television series Louie, helmed by the acclaimed comedian Louis C.K., and Bubble Guppies, a beloved children's program that has captured the hearts of young audiences worldwide.
Notably, this talented individual embarked on a notable journey, making two significant appearances on Saturday Night Live in the year 2017, thereby leaving a profound and lasting impact on the vast audience that bore witness to her performances.
Regrettably, the life of Griggs was cruelly and abruptly terminated at the tender age of 13, as a result of a catastrophic and potentially fatal asthma attack that proved to be the ultimate and irreversible ending to his brief but promising existence.
