— Actor | Musician | Playwright
A theatre kid who never stopped chasing the bit.
Ben Tschirgi is an East Coast actor, musician, and playwright who has performed up and down the coast in theatre and film. He brings characters to life with intensity, wit, and a singer's instinct for rhythm and timing.
As an actor, his favorite roles include Prior Walter in Angels in America with Howard County Arts Collective and Leon Czolgosz in Assassins with The Sarasota Players. He is currently developing an autobiographical acoustic one-person musical.
He trained at Stevenson University (B.S. Film, Video, & Theatre) and continues to study acting, voice, and improv — most recently with Florida Studio Theatre.
