Erin Leigh Peck BIO


Erin Leigh Peck decided she wanted to be an actress around the time she learned how to speak. She dragged her reluctant mother into the world of child acting, earning her Equity card at the age of 11 when she played "Laurie" in the First National Tour of Neil Simon's Brighton Beach Memoirs, and Jane Kaczmareck's daughter on the CBS primetime drama Hometown. She attended NYU where she earned her BFA in acting. After college, Erin toured with the 1994 revival of Grease! and eventually made her Broadway debut as vacation swing for the New York company. She later replaced Tony and Drama Desk award winner Jennifer Simard in the cast of the original Off-Broadway production of I Love You, You're Perfect, Now Change, where she played over 16 different characters each night to packed houses. Erin's TV credits include Law & Order SVU (NBC), Happy (Syfy), Billions (Showtime), and the five-time Digital Daytime Emmy award winning Amazon series After Forever.

Erin's Off-Broadway credits include starring as "Polly" in the Transport Group's ground-breaking musical Normal. Frank Scheck of the NY Post called Erin Leigh's portrayal "Particularly moving" and Michael Dale of Broadwayworld.com voted Erin's performance of the song Pretty to the Bone, "My most memorable moment in a new musical this year." As the standby for Tony award winner Lena Hall and Tony nominee Nancy Opel in the original cast of the hit Off-Broadway musical Toxic Avenger, Erin was privileged to have the opportunity to stretch her acting and vocal chops to the limits, sometimes playing "Sarah", the bumbling blind girl with a heart of gold, and "Ma/Mayor", a challenging, dual-role character who sings a rangy rock duet with herself! Erin was a proud member of the original Off-Broadway cast of princesses in Disenchanted! at the Westside Theatre where her unique standby position had her covering no less than four principal roles in the hilarious Off-Broadway musical hit.

Erin has performed at the New York Musical Theatre Festival (NYMF) a total of five times, including the 2014 production of Mr. Confidential where she earned an Outstanding Individual Performance award. Suzanna Bowling of the Times Square Chronicles called Erin "a standout" who's musical numbers "are worth the whole show."

Most recently, Erin originated the role of "Mrs. Finkelstein" in the original Hartford Stage production of The Flamingo Kid where she understudied Liz Larsen.

When she is not acting, Erin works as a freelance writer. Her work has been published online in parenting blogs, on Broadwayworld.com and other theatrical publictions, for the AARP online and for The Girlfriend Newsletter. Her play, Marjorie Gold, was workshopped under the direction of Tony-nominee Sherryl Kaller.

BWW Review: SONATA 1962 at NYMF is Real, Relatable and Heart-Wrenching


Let me preface this by saying, when I reserved my tickets for Sonata 1962, I read the show's synopsis and decided it was something I would be interested in. I then promptly forgot what the show was about in the two months leading up to the performance I was attending. I highly recommend viewing the show that way. Or better yet, don't read the synopsis at all. This review will include spoilers, just be warned.
