BIOGRAPHY:
Cherise Kimoy is a dedicated, risk-taking artist who hopes to bring awareness and delight to others through her work. Originally from Miami, FL, she received her BFA in Acting from the University of Central Florida then professionally performed regionally, being featured in musicals, plays, original works, readings, TV and film opportunities on networks like Netflix and OWN. Shes's been featured in productions like, Dreamgirls (cast as Deena, Lorrell, and Michelle in at different theatres), Memphis, In the Heights, the Color Purple, The Cake and more! During the pandemic, when so many of us discovered so much about ourselves, Kimoy discovered a deep love for playwriting. Although she featured in playwriting and collaborative works prior, like Tectonic Theatre Porject’s The Album and various other new development workshops, it wasn’t until creating a play inspired by her mother’s passing (check cherisekimoy.com for where Motherless is being featured) that ignited something in her. She is super excited to be a part of this opportunity and she looks forward to creating more! God is love.
