​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, previously spied biking through sunny Philadelphia, and currently transplanted to Athens, Georgia to pursue her MFA in Acting at the University of Georgia. Go Dawgs!

Common sightings of Brooke have occurred in bike lanes of Philly and Athens.  When she's not biking through town, she's probably in a theater... or in a class... or at CrossFit... or in a yoga studio... 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 college, Brooke majored in Accounting (so she could have a solid financial backup career), minored in Musical Theatre (but was always mistaken for a theater major due to her extreme involvement), and fulfilled her lifelong dream of travelling to Italy (where she studied abroad in Florence).  One of her favorite hobbies in Florence was speaking the language to all the Italians in the restaurants and cafes.  She still enjoys speaking Italian to anyone who will converse (slowly) with her today!

As a performer today...

Brooke enjoys trying new techniques, exploring new works, making known stuff different, and having fun. ​

 She fancies being in musicals because singing + acting + dancing = awesome! She also thrives off of the  straight plays because digging into the arc of a character is fascinating.  

Comedy is a newer passion of hers, and she's convinced that writing and performing her own comedy act is more terrifying (in the best of ways) than all other forms of theatre combined!
She debuted her act Oz Rewritten: Musical Parodies by Brooke McCarthy during PHIT Comedy's Black Friday Comedy Marathon 2017. Success!
