JUSTIN TALKINGTON

Justin is a New York City based actor, singer, dancer, and educator. A rural Indiana transplant, Justin began performing regularly in NYC after being selected to perform in the 2013 Broadway’s Rising Stars concert at Town Hall under the direction of Scott Coulter. A proud member of Actor’s Equity Association, some favorite professional credits include the regional tour of “Annie Get Your Gun” (Frank Butler) under the direction of Judy Norton, National Tour of “Junie B. Jones” (Mr. Scary), “Funny Girl” (Eddie Ryan), “Into the Woods” (Cinderella’s Prince), and the role of Candide at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center’s “One Hand, One Heart” tribute concert to Leonard Bernstein. Justin has toured nationally with five-time Grammy nominated singer and archivist Michael Feinstein and performs regularly at Feinstein’s/ 54 Below, Metropolitan Room, Town Hall, and Laurie Beechman Theatre. Justin’s symphonic concert work includes performances with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra, Gainesville Orchestra, Signature Symphony, Phoenix Symphony and Purdue Philharmonic Orchestra,

Working professionally with younger generations for over ten years, Justin is still exploring his love of teaching the arts, personal training, and wellness coaching in New York City and across the country. In addition to working as a guest Choreographer and Associate Director in Musical Theatre at the Interlochen Center for the Arts in Traverse City, Michigan, Justin is the National Head of Performing Arts for Fusion Academy’s sixty-five campuses across the United States. When Justin is not balancing his careers in the performing arts, education, and physical wellness, he can be found reading at the nearest coffeehouse or potentially binge eating Sour Patch Kids whilst hiking in nature.
