ABOUT
Benjamin Snyder was born into theatre. While growing up in their hometown of Titusville Pennsylvania, Ben’s parents were heavily involved in the local community theatres. As such, Ben spent time year-round attending rehearsals, listening to show tunes, and observing the inner-workings of the theatre arts.
Ben’s first show was as a baby in a performance of Rodgers and Hammerstein's 'Carousel'. To date, Ben has been a part of over fifty productions in various roles such as actor, director, playwright, and tech. In 2019, they graduated from Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Music Education. In 2024 Ben graduated from New York University with a master’s in vocal performance, concentration musical theatre performance.
“Benjamin Snyder has a robust and rolling tenor voice that might have been a soprano in a different world. This young actor’s comic skills are apparent and sure to mature. The stage presence is impressive and enchanting. Surely this is a talent that is going somewhere”
