Hi, I'm
(First name: Mary Beth. Two words with a space.)
If you want a sensational tap dancer with the spunk of Reno Sweeney and the maternal maturity of Mary Poppins, welcome.
You've found your light.
I'm a New York City-based actor likely to show up in a vintage dress (probably something from my grandma, ideally gingham) to deliver a brassy pop / rock belt or classic R&H soprano—be still my midwestern heart.
Mary Beth Donahoe
Part showgirl, part leading lady, I've been known to go from a blue-lipsticked 'sexy shark' to Mean Girls 'plastic' in 3 minutes. I LOVE the satisfaction of nailing a tight harmony line and will be meticulous about which verse has a quarter note pickup and which verse has an eighth (virgo).
I've toured through 105 cities in the U.S. and Canada, so I'm happy to share my well-curated list of gluten-free bakeries, coffee shops, and tour stores.
