Katerina McCrimmon: NAKED

Katerina McCrimmon is a Cuban-American performer born and raised in the vibrant heart of Miami, FL. She captivated audiences nationwide as Fanny Brice in the Broadway tour of Funny Girl, earning high praise from Entertainment Weekly, who called her “the next greatest star” with a “once-in-a-generation voice.”

Katerina’s journey through the theatre world has taken her from the electric lights of Broadway in The Rose Tattoo (Roundabout Theatre Company) to the rich textures of classic and contemporary stages— The Counterfeit Opera (Little Island), The Light in the Piazza (New York City Center Encores!), Ride the Cyclone (McCarter Theatre), and Ah, Wilderness! (Hartford Stage).

Her solo show, Katerina McCrimmon: Naked, premiered at Joe’s Pub to a sold-out house and will continue its path this year at Lincoln Center’s David Rubenstein Atrium. This July, she brings to life the legendary Eva Perón in Evita at The MUNY in St. Louis.

Katerina holds a Bachelor of Music from Florida State University and is honored to be a YoungArts winner and a U.S. Presidential Scholar in the Arts.

A Born Storyteller:

A Presidential Scholar in the Arts and National YoungArts Winner in Theatre, Katerina made her Broadway debut in The Rose Tattoo after being discovered by Academy Award-winner Marisa Tomei. She later took center stage as Fanny Brice in the first Broadway National Tour of Funny Girl, starring alongside Grammy Award-winner Melissa Manchester and directed by Tony Award-winner Michael Mayer.  She most recently played the title role in “Evita” at the MUNY in St. Louis, America’s oldest and largest (11,000 seats) outdoor musical theatre.

She is currently working on her debut solo album, Holy Animals—a deeply personal project that explores voice, identity, and transformation.
