Jared Fessler

Jared is originally from Iowa and now lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He grew up surrounded by the performing arts, which sparked an early and lasting connection to theatre. His training spans music, dance, and theatre, including BFA-level musical theatre work. He holds an undergraduate degree in Marketing and Communications with coursework in Music and Theatre, as well as a master’s degree in Organizational Management and Public Administration.

Some of his favorite stage experiences include State Fair, Oliver, Guys and Dolls, Working, Damn Yankees, A Chorus Line, and The Crucible (opera).

Professionally, Jared works in workforce development and IT. He is also an accomplished photographer and a commercial model, having appeared in numerous advertisements for large corporate companies. While his career has taken him beyond the stage, his love for the arts remains central to his life—he regularly attends productions, participates in workshops, and occasionally performs.

A longtime reader of Broadway World, Jared has come full circle as the platform now features his own work, reflecting the role theatre continues to play in his life.
