Jenna Levitt

 

Jenna has been singing as far back as she can remember. Her first real stage experience, however, was in high school when she had the honor of soloing with the award-winning and nationally acclaimed Hall High School Jazz Band for two years. Jenna went on to Ithaca College where she studied voice privately while working on her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. After she came home from college, Jenna went on to get her Master's Degree in Education, and music took the back burner for a little while as she worked days and went to school at night. In 2001, Jenna finally got back onto the stage, although this time it was not to sing jazz but rather to get her feet wet in musical theater. Since then Jenna has performed in a number of musicals, including Annie (Mrs. Greer/ Ronnie Boylan), Smokey Joe's Cafe, and Children of Eden (Eve) with the Plainville Choral Society.

 In November 2004, Jenna joined the highly talented cast of Jekyll and Hyde with the Little Theatre of Manchester (LTM). She also performed as Ethel Toffelmeier in The Music Man with LTM this past fall, where she earned a nomination for Best Leading Actress in a Musical. Perhaps one of her most challenging roles was as part of the Angel City Four in Rocky Hill Town Theatre's City of Angels, which garnered Best Show 2005 from Theaterlives, a tremendous honor.

Jenna counts her performance as Narrator in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,  as one of the most rewarding experiences she has had thus far. She also enjoyed the  wonderfully talented and dedicated cast of Into the Woods with the award winning Little Theatre of Manchester, where she played the roles of Cinderella's Mother, Granny, and the Giant's Wife.

Jenna is extremely excited to dive into her new role of "Mrs. Meers" in Manchester Musical Players "Thoroughly Modern Millie" which will start rehearsing in January and open in April.

 

Comment to Jenna: You pick your roles very well - those were all exceptionally outstanding shows! - John
