Hiiii

I’m a DC-based actor and singer who dabbles in sketch comedy and stand-up. I’d be a fantastic candidate for the following roles:

Talking mule in children’s show
Exhausted young southern mom
Petty villain with catchphrase

The standout here is Rebecca Ballinger. Her portrayal isn’t just laugh-out-loud engaging, but it also adds layers to this genre-bending production that would be sorely missed.

The Moors, MD Theatre Guide

From subtle realism to scintillating farce, Ballinger crafts performances with exceptional detail and confidence.

UnProfessional Opinion

Ballinger’s comedic performance brought the audience to hysterics, hanging from her every word, unsure of what she would say or do next.

HOW THE SAUSAGE

GETS MADE

Faction of Fools

I just finished up this political comedy (THAT WE WROTE!!!) back in August. Caro Dubberly's blog said, "Ballinger in particular has such an ear for the perfect balance between stylization and irony, using the natural rhythm in a scene to her advantage at every turn before subverting it with a metaphorical flick of the wrist." I'm also humbled to report that I'm now a Faction of Fools company member!

HEAD OVER HEELS

Constellation Theatre

I spent the spring playing Mopsa in this endearing af musical. Washington City Paper said, "a standout performance by Ballinger." The Washington Post said, "There’s not a weak link in Stockman’s up-for-anything cast." And MD Theatre Guide said, "The chemistry between [Link and Ballinger] is beautifully realized, giving us a meaningful story arc and show-stopping duets."

THE HONEY TRAP

Reading at Irish Rep

Last fall, I sorta got to make my Off-Broadway debut! The Honey Trap, where I first originated the role of Emily in Solas Nua’s 2023 production, had a reading as part of Irish Rep's New Works Festival. Calling it one of the most exciting days of my life barely scratches the surface.
