Alan Rackley

Alan Rackley (Alan Porter Rackley) was born in Little Rock, Arkansas. He began singing and performing at a very early age. He made his stage debut at the age of 12 in Puccini's "Gianni Schicchi" with the Arkansas Opera Theatre (now the Opera Theatre at Wildewood) and later that same season starred as Amahl in "Amahl and the Night Visitors". Alan pursued a professional operatic career, obtaining a degree in Vocal Arts from the University of Southern California. He has studied opera with Metropolitan Opera stars, worked under the baton of world-renowned conductors and has appeared with world-class singers and orchestras. He decided to change the course of his career and, after acting studies at Stella Adler Academy, began working in musical theatre, appearing in many productions and receiving excellent reviews. After being bitten by the acting bug, Alan started pursuing roles in film and television. He has worked with some of Hollywood's leading directors, including legendary sitcom director Gerry Cohen. Alan loves portraying offbeat characters, and he especially loves roles that involve improv.
