Jennie Burchette

I am from Yukon, Oklahoma, a suburb right outside of Oklahoma City. Growing up I was a passionate one and was beyond curious about everything around me. This resulted in me being obsessed with all things science. I wanted to know why and how things worked. However, my focus on science dwindled when I found singing. Singing quickly became my driving force. My parents recognized this spark and quickly put me in voice lessons. 

 

From there I discovered theatre and I realized that acting combines all of my earliest passions. Acting allows me to study human behavior and study why people do the things they do and then let go of all of that and portray them through art. And when I discovered I could do that while also singing, there was no turning back.

 

So for the past four years, I have been cultivating my art at Point Park University, located in Pittsburgh, PA, pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theatre (2022). My time here has allowed me to grow into myself as an artist. I have discovered how important authenticity is to me, especially in regard to my art.

 

Outside of theatre, I love finding new vinyl records to add to my growing collection. Connie Francis and Brenda Lee are my girls and I will buy every record I find of theirs. I also love biking around the city, finding new spots I’ve never seen, and visiting old favorites. I know that I have so much to offer to this world and my art is the best way I know how to share myself and cultivate an atmosphere of light and I am excited to continue to share it.
