About
Theo Wampler (they/them) is a gender-fluid actor, singer, and voice-over artist currently residing in Boston, Massachusetts.
Theo brings a deeply convicted but always playful and collaborative energy to the work and possesses a keen attention to detail plus an exceptional ability to incorporate criticism.
“For a very long time nobody knew what to do with me. Then somebody put me in a dress and suddenly I made sense! What’s interesting is that once I had the experience of playing authentic queer roles, that spoke so intimately to my inner truth, even the characters that didn’t, got better. It provided me with a way of connecting truth to text that I’d never experienced. Which is why I advocate for the things I do!
Showbiz has a sordid past of NOT employing "too obviously gay" actors. It is often denied that there is flexibility or versatility within the expression of the effeminate— that's obvious in women’s roles alone! But it’s important to recognize that the same things that keep women from having enough roles keep men’s roles in a box and queer people… invisible.”
