Mia Gerachis

"I am a New York-based actor, singer, dancer who hails originally from Houston, TX (Go Astros!). Growing up, I split my time between athletics and the arts until I decided to officially pursue a BFA in musical theatre during high school. I then set off to study at NYU Tisch School of the Arts in the New Studio on Broadway. During my time at NYU, not only was I fortunate to take part in many wonderful productions and meet incredible collaborators; NYU also encouraged me to find out what kind of artist I wanted to become. Since graduating in May 2017, I have had the opportunity to lead several professional shows, including Jekyll & Hyde (Lucy Harris, opposite Constantine Maroulis) at Virginia Musical Theatre, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (Narrator) at Casa Mañana, and the national tour of ELF (Jovie). I also have a passion for new work, performing original music by several composers such as Joey Contreras and David Reiser, as well as originating a role in the 2017 New York Theatre Festival production of Dirty July, a play by Kate Thomas. I spent summer of 2019 up at the Finger Lakes Musical Theatre Festival playing Rizzo in GREASE, as well as playing Francine Valli in Jersey Boys at North Shore Music Theatre. Can't wait to see where this life in the arts (post-pandemic) takes me next! "
