I’m MK McDonald, and I’m a New York based actor, singer, dancer, and teaching artist originally from Boston, Massachusetts (go Sox). 

As an elementary schooler, my mom sat me in front of the family computer to watch SNL skits from the 70’s. My “Roseanne Rosannadanna” quickly became one of my greatest hits.

Once I discovered theatre, I had a forever outlet.

I studied Music Theatre in college, graduating from Elon University’s BFA program with a minor in Education. Nowadays, I am a working creative/teaching artist.

I most often find myself playing dynamic, humorous women: equal parts whimsy and heart.

I’m currently back in New England at A.C.T of Connecticut working on Dear Evan Hansen as a standby for Alana and Zoe.

 A special skill not listed on my resume is making tomato soup from scratch accompanied by the world’s best grilled cheese. When not onstage, I can be found on a run (add me on Strava) or crocheting new additions to my wardrobe.
