Theresa McKenna

Description

I’m a passionate and versatile musical theatre performer with strong roots in classical training, a flair for contemporary styles, and a love for storytelling through song. Originally from Drogheda, I now divide my time between Dublin and the Netherlands, performing in a range of musical settings from stage productions to international tours. With a BA in Applied Music, years of vocal coaching experience, and a background in jazz, pop, and musical theatre, I bring energy, emotional depth, and professionalism to every role I take on.
In addition to performing, I’m an experienced pianis ... t and keyboardist, with years of experience playing both in bands and accompanying myself. This instrumental versatility enhances my musical interpretation and allows me to connect more deeply with the material I perform.
As a well-travelled and well-rounded performer, I’m confident singing and playing across a wide range of genres—from classical and jazz to pop, soul, and contemporary musical theatre—bringing adaptability and musical sensitivity to every setting.
