Colin Welter
Actor • Singer • Dancer • Musician
Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Colin Welter (he/him/his) is a singer, dancer, and actor presently based in New York and San Francisco. He is also a multi-instrumentalist, music director, arranger, synthesizer programmer, director and writer. As an artist, he is drawn to the power of music to capsulate the human condition.
He has performed across the country with TheatreWorksUSA, Lyric Stage of Boston, and Hillbarn Theatre. He began performing theatrically at age 9 in Damn Yankees with San Carlos Children’s Theater and kept with the company through high school in multiple positions, from onstage roles to assistant directing to serving on the youth advisory board.
Colin took his education to Emerson College, where he graduated Cum Laude with a BFA in Musical Theatre as a part of the Honors College. He has performed onstage with Emerson Stage, served as Music Director in Residence for Musical Theatre Society, and was the teaching assistant for the Music Theory courses.
When not performing, he can be found baking bananas foster cheesecake, playing fast-paced card games, or hopelessly rooting for his San Jose Sharks #TheFutureIsTeal.
