JAMES RAGEN!

I am a Brooklyn based actor from San Diego, CA.

Check out my senior showcase! I am a recent graduate of the BFA Acting program at Syracuse University. I love The Beatles, Stephen King’s IT, and the San Diego Padres.

My love of the arts began with my love of piano, which I began learning at age three before picking up guitar at five. My first original song, “Sugar Rush,” written when I was seven, kicked off my passion for artistic creation. Recently, I created, wrote, directed, and performed in my cabaret fundraiser “The Cult Cabaret” at Syracuse University in support of Trans Lifeline. This May, I created and produced “Songs From The Musicals That Made Me Queer” at 54 Below featuring performers from every letter of the LGBT+ acronym telling their stories through songs that inspired them as they moved through their queer journey.

I’m currently serving as the Assistant Director for Hungry Women at Soho Playhouse. You can purchase tickets here.
