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 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 arriving at California State University, Fullerton. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Arts, and performed in multiple productions.

 

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 also performed at the Cicada Club, the Colony Theatre, Hollywood Fringe Festival, and the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion. 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 been performing in cabarets all over the town, appeared in Head and Heart at New York Musical Festival 2019, and served as an emcee of Slime Time Live at  Nickelodeon Universe American Dream theme park. Most recently, I finished a stint with Disney Cruise Line aboard the Disney Magic.

 

 I performed my solo show, Cockeyed Optimist, at both CSUF at the Chance Theatre. 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. Find me on social media at @MitchellFierce for more!
