ANDREW O'SHANICK recently made his Broadway Debut in Bruce Sussman and Barry Manilow's long-awaited production of Harmony: A New Musical at the Ethel Barrymore Theater. Playing to universal acclaim, his chilling portrayal of the SS Officer helped tell one of the most moving stories on Broadway this season.

Andrew grew up immersed in the arts - beginning violin lessons at the age of 3 and diving into ballet class by the time he turned 6 - and after earning his Master’s Degree in Opera Performance from the Boston Conservatory, Andrew moved to New York City to pursue his dream of making a living as an artist.

 

He spent four years enrolled in the Matthew Corozine Studio where he studied a Meisner-based technique and, most importantly, found an amazingly supportive and generous community of artists. Since then, Andrew has taken Chekhov workshops with John McManus, On Camera Technique with the Matt Newton Studio, and is an ongoing member of the inimitable Lesly Kahn & Co through the magic (and ocular pain) of Zoom.

In addition to his artistic pursuits, Andrew also spent part of the pandemic trying to make sure the country was not subjected to another four years of the human skidmark that was our 45th President. He worked remotely from his parents’ attic as a Field Organizer with the Arizona Democratic Coordinated Campaign for a region of Maricopa County in what feels like a fever dream of Google Voice calls, CRMs and caffeine microdosing, thankfully emerging victorious and exhausted and certain that he never wants to have to do that again.

Feel free to cast him in a TV Show or a Movie or a Play - he’s definitely very keen on all of that.
