Performance

Allison S. Finkelstein is a multi-genre actor, singer, and dancer based in the Washington, D.C. area. A true crossover performer, her skills enable her to easily move between musical theatre, classical voice, and classical dance. With her versatile lyric coloratura range, her voice training has encompassed golden-age and contemporary musical theatre, as well as classical opera and the Gilbert and Sullivan canon. She weekly maintains her extensive dance training in ballet, jazz, theatre dance, and tap—her happy place is in the dance studio! In addition to dancing, Allison takes private voice lessons. An actor at the core, Allison infuses all of her performances with character development and loves to create backstories for any role she takes on.
