Hi, I’m Madelyn! I usually go by Maddy. I am an actor, writer, solo performance artist, yoga instructor, long time vegan, and cat lover. I like to call myself general artistic garbage.

After growing up outside of Denver, I moved around the country before landing in Chicago, where I’ve lived for the past 8 years. I received my MFA in Acting in 2024 from DePaul University where I developed my latest solo show, FLESH, and wrote, produced, and starred in my first short film, Pickle Juice. I’m thrilled for FLESH to have its professional debut with Redtwist Theatre. More info can be found here, pay what you can tickets can be found here.

When I’m not performing you can find me riding my blue/green/orange bike around the city, fiending after vegan pastries, and cuddling my kitties Paulie and Peach.

If you’re curious, my last name is pronounced like King Lear.
