About Chelsea

Chelsea is an actor, singer, dancer, and stage manager.

She is a current CAP21 Senior getting her BFA in Musical Theatre at Molloy University. She is set to graduate Summa Cum Laude in May 2026 with a minor in Psychology and with Honors from the School of Arts and Sciences.

Most recently, Chelsea donned her best jewels and evil glares as Madame in Cinderella at Molloy University/CAP21. Last Spring, she was seen in Lippa’s The Wild Party, directed by Billy Bustamante (Molloy Uni/CAP21). She is also a working stage manager in NYC and stage-managed the New York Theatre Festival’s Summer 2025 Best Production, Archive of My Own.

You may also recognize her from her TEDx talk “I Want to Remove Maybe from the Dictionary,” which has amassed over 600 views on YouTube. In Spring 2019, she competed at the Northern European Speech & Debate Association competition in Prague. She and her partner made it to the finals for the Duet Acting category and placed 3rd out of 22 teams.

She lived with her family in Düsseldorf, Germany from 2016-2019. While there, she attended the International School of Düsseldorf and, in her free time, traveled to 27 countries and fell in love with all the beautiful cultures across Europe, Asia, and Africa.

When she’s not training, rehearsing, or performing, you can find her riding horses. A skilled competitor in hunt and western, she has had great success at the regional and national levels, having earned a national Top Ten, a regional Champion title, and three regional Reserve Champion titles.

She’s grateful to her parents, teachers, and theatre community for believing in her and for encouraging her to work hard and chase her dreams.
