​What happens when you release the cork from a shaken bottle of pink champagne as you set off a glitter-filled confetti cannon into the sunny sky? Brooke!

Brooke McCarthy is an actor/singer/comedy-loving burst of bubbles, originally from South Jersey. She was previously spotted biking through sunny Philadelphia and hilly Athens, Georgia, and she's currently transplanted to Duluth, Georgia to begin a new chapter of life with her lovely fiancé.

Common sightings of Brooke have occurred in bike lanes of Philly, Athens, & Duluth.  When she's not biking through town, she's probably in a theater... or in a class... or in a yoga studio... or a hanging from a silk... or experimenting with new cocktails... she never sits still!

A little bit of backstory...

Brooke began singing around 5 years old and declared that her first performance would be her first grade talent show. She sang "My Heart Will Go On" from the movie Titanic (so cute, right?!).  She's been performing ever since.

​In her undergraduate studies, Brooke majored in Accounting, minored in Musical Theatre (but was always mistaken for a theater major due to her extreme involvement), and minored in Italian where she got to fulfill a lifelong dream of travelling to Italy (for a semester abroad in Florence). One of her favorite hobbies in Florence was speaking the language to all the Italians in the restaurants and cafes.

In her graduate studies, Brooke soaked up every acting technique and tool possible during her time at the University of Georgia where she obtained her MFA in Acting while teaching acting courses to the undergrads.

As a performer today...

Brooke enjoys creating new works, experimenting with new techniques, making known stuff different, and having fun. ​

Comedy is a passion of hers, and she's convinced that writing and performing her own comedy show is more terrifying (in the best of ways) and rewarding than all other forms of theatre combined!

She debuted her original, full-length, one-woman cabaret-comedy show How to be an Ethical Slut in November 2020 at Hendershot's in Athens, GA.

Previously she performed her original 10-minute comedy show
Oz Rewritten: Musical Parodies during the Philly Improv Theatre's Black Friday Comedy Marathon in 2017.
