MIA MARKS
ACTRESS | STAGE, FILM, COMMERCIAL | CHICAGO, IL
Hi there!
I'm Mia. Thanks for clicking on my website.
I am a stage and film actor in Chicago, IL. I've loved performing since I was a little girl and I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to pursue my dreams in the field of entertainment. I am always looking to collaborate with those passionate about the same things I am, and I can't wait to see what else is in store for me!
ABOUT ME
I grew up in Highland Park, Illinois and in 2022 I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre from Illinois State University. I love to explore the outdoors, sing, dance, read, write, ski, and cook! My hope is to be able to travel and see as much of the world and all of its' cultures as I can. I've loved theatre since I was a little girl. It all started at the age of 7 when my camp counselor encouraged me to join the theatre program due to all of the energy I had. My first role ever was Augustus Gloop in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Jr., and the rest is history!
WHAT'S NEW?
I am currently understudying two tracks for Black Button Eyes Productions "A Shadow Bright and Burning," which opens Sunday, August 25th and runs through September 29th at the Edge Theatre on Broadway. I am also in the process of working on the staged reading of a new play, "Off-White; or the Arab House Party Play,
by Alyssa Haddad-Chin through the theatre initiative Backstitch Story Arts at the Bramble Theatre Loft in Andersonville. The performance is September 14th @2:30pm and there will be a talkback afterwards.
