MITCHELL TURNER
About Me
I'm Mitchell Turner (he/his), a singer, dancer, and actor currently based out of New York, NY. Growing up in Redondo Beach, CA, I was raised on VHS tapes of Tony Awards, wore out the Rent, Wicked, and Sunset Boulevard cast recordings, and had a more sophisticated palate for theatre than most eight-year olds. I started my training at Palos Verdes Performing Arts Conservatory, before receiving my Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Arts from California State University, Fullerton.
Favorite regional credits include Parade (Britt Craig) and Kiss Me Kate at the Chance Theatre, The Music Man (Ewart Dunlop), Fiddler on the Roof (Mendel), and Mary Poppins at Palos Verdes Performing Arts, and Chicago (Mary Sunshine), at the Harris Center. I was awarded as first runner-up of LA's Next Great Stage Star, presented by Princess Cruises, and was a top ten finalist of Playbill's Search for a Star. Now, working and living in New York, I've appeared in Head and Heart at New York Musical Festival 2019, served as an emcee of Slime Time Live at Nickelodeon Universe American Dream theme park, and perform in cabarets at venues raining from 54 Below and Chelsea Table + Stage to Duplex and Green Room 42. Most recently, I finished a stint as a mainstage performer with Disney Cruise Line aboard the Disney Magic!
Off stage, I co-host a weekly podcast about pop culture called EGOTS and EGOS with my best friend Joseph Hayes. I also work as an independent Disney vacation planner for Good Story Vacations. I'm a proud dog stepparent to a pug named Babushka, find time every week to watch every city of Real Housewives, and I'm also a Taurus, if that's your sort of thing.
