Kelly Beuth is an actor/director and theatre educator who has worked throughout the Buffalo area for over seventeen years.  
     Favorite roles include Phoebe in AS YOU LIKE IT for Shakespeare in Delaware Park, Margot in THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK for Theater of Youth, The Angry Vagina in THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES for the V-Day for RAINN Initiative, in which she has been a five-year participant, and multiple roles in RAMONA AND JULIET (which earned her the 2007 Artie Award for Best Supporting Actress) produced by the Brazen-Faced Varlets, of which she is a founding member.  
     She has also appeared on many other stages including The Kavinoky Theatre, Buffalo Ensemble Theatre and Curtain Call Productions, to name only a few.  
     In addition to having directed professionally for several companies including Alleyway, Pandora's Box, and the Toronto Fringe Festival, Kelly spends much of her time working with our city's youth, as both a teacher and a director of theatre arts.  She has taught for Daemen College, Genesee Community College, and the Arts in Education Institute of Western New York, among others, and currently holds a full-time position at the Buffalo Academy for Visual and Performing Arts.  For fifteen years she also served as a teacher at Studio Arena Theatre School.  
    Kelly is thrilled to be a part of Subversive Theatre where she participated in our staged reading of WAITING FOR LEFTY for May Day 2006.  She also appeared in the world-premier of Bill Schmidt's farcical political skit "Don't Hate the Messenger" as part of our showcase SUBVERSIVE SHORTS 2007 at Rust Belt Books in June 2007.
    In our production of NICKEL AND DIMED (pictured above) in April-May of 2008, Kelly displayed her nearly limitless range playing a long list of bizarre and eccentric characters at the Alt Theatre.  She performed in our staged reading of THE MAN WHO NEVER DIED at the Alt for May Day 2008 and then in our production of PALACE OF THE END (2009) -- the first-ever production at the Manny Fried Playhouse.
     Most recently, Kelly was a part of sUBVERsIVE sHORTs 2009 directing the vignette "Beautiful Ogre" and acting in "Vessels."
