ABOUT THE ARTIST
Colin Villacorte is many things. An actor, musician, singer-songwriter, composer, arranger, award-winning-comedy-sketch-writer, teacher, but he wants to be known as a collaborative spirit who thrives off of honest storytelling, excelling work ethic and high performance standards. He is a graduate of Point Park University in Pittsburgh, with a Bachelors in Fine Arts in Acting. He has worked with Point Park’s Conservatory Theatre mainstage shows, performed for regional theatre companies (Pittsburgh Shakespeare in the Park, Avant Bard Theatre, Glass Canon Theatre Company, NextStop Theatre Company), as well as created theatre out of state (Texas Shakespeare Festival).
He taught himself how to play guitar over the COVID-19 pandemic, and has since then integrated his musical skills into some of the shows he’s been cast in. He has also taught himself how to play bass guitar, drums, percussion, ukulele, harmonica, and mandolin (he took piano lessons at a young age, but he still knows his scales!) He teaches music to his students at Expressions Music Academy. He also writes, records, and produces original alternative rock music under the name “Real Tearz”, which streams on all music streaming platforms. He is an avid chef and foodie, loves cats and video games, going to the gym, and is always down for a few games of pickleball. He is currently based in the Washington Metro Area.
