Tristyn is relieved to be performing again, after taking a hiatus in March 2020 for no reason in particular. Favorite past roles include Veronica Sawyer (Heathers/The Footlight Club - DASH Award, Best Lead Actress in a Musical 2018), Bombalurina (Cats/Star Players of Bristol County), Brooke Wyndham (Legally Blonde/The Footlight Club), and her last stage role before the mysterious hiatus, The Pirate King (The Pirates of Penzance/Yorick Ensemble). Tristyn has her MFA from The Boston Conservatory in Musical Theater Performance. She would like to thank Shlomi Zan at Hebrew College for being such an incredible Ulpan teacher, and Robert Sepersky for his dedication in maintaining ‘us’ instead of ‘them.’
