Barry Finkel

Barry Finkel is originally from the East Coast and enjoyed a bit of a reputation for playing a variety of "unique" roles that might include any range of age, gender, species, or appearance. After a long career in Theater (musicals and plays, Broadway, off-Broadway, regional and international Theatre, TV and commercials, he wanted the much warmer climate of Los Angeles. Always a bit of a paradox, he loves animals (maybe why he plays so many of them!). He likes to try and remain health conscious and fit, however, he also has never met a donut he doesn't like! Barry enjoys giving back to the performing arts community by helping build future generations of performing artists. He serves as resident Director/Choreographer/Instructor at AMDA College and Conservatory of the Performing Arts in Hollywood; the same school from which he holds a BFA degree in Performing Arts. There, he also serves in a key administrative role, overseeing teachers, students, and curricula. Having trained as a Theatre Dancer he has skills in tap, jazz, and ballet dance styles and is also a character actor/singer (Baritone) with a range of accents/dialects and character voices. Favorite past time - watching horror movies!
