ACTOR | SINGER | DIRECTOR | ARTISTIC LEADER

Hi! I’m Weller.

I’m a New York City-based actor, singer, director, and artistic leader from Colorado Springs, CO.

Growing up, I found my joy in reading and telling stories. It began with pretending to record audiobooks in my childhood living room, and gradually spread to my elementary school playground or a library corner. My love of books manifested as a desire to see and be part of the stories I read, ultimately leading me to the vibrant theatre community in Colorado Springs.

My wonderful mentors encouraged me to pursue a career in theatre and I wound up at the Syracuse University Department of Drama, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude in May 2026 with a B.F.A. in Musical Theatre. During my time at SU, I had the opportunity to perform at Syracuse Stage, serve as Artistic Director of Black Box Players, and receive the Sawyer Falk Award for Excellence in Artistic Leadership from the Department of Drama.

Currently, I am working as an Actor and simultaneously serving as the Producing at Cortland Repertory Theatre, continuing to nurture both sides of my theatrical interests as performer and producer.

I am passionate about reexamining classic works and, with extensive experience in workshopping new pieces, developing bold new stories for the stage.

So come on in, take a look around, and feel free to reach out!


PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT

I am interested in telling individual stories that reflect the universality of the human condition. I approach my work with diligence, creativity, patience, and a collaborative spirit, striving to share stories infused with honesty and empathy.


UP NEXT

I’m beyond excited to return for my second summer at Cortland Repertory Theatre! This summer, I will serve as the Producing Associate and play ‘Man 1’ in Baskerville and ‘Rooster Hannigan’ in Annie.
