still pinching myself! Tracy Turnblad on
the 20th Anniversary Tour of Hairspray
I'm glad you stopped by!
Here's a little bit about me:
As a NYC based performer who grew up in the blue mountains of upstate NY (a short 10 minute drive from Woodstock), I was fortunate to be surrounded by incredible theatre experiences that inspired me to pursue my dreams. I continued my education at Montclair State University, where I graduated with a BFA in Musical Theatre and a minor in American Sign Language.
I'm incredibly passionate about creating work that sparks joy, moves, and makes people think. I hope the work I do with my art helps shape the world for the better!
I am also passionate about iced coffee (even in the winter), cozying up with a book or a puzzle, and dogs (even created an Instagram account documenting the new furry friends I met while on tour with Hairspray)! Follow my social media (@nikimetcalf on all platforms) for more behind the scenes into my life!
About Me
