About

Hi, I’m Toni Downey, a versatile actor and writer with extensive experience in theatre, film, and television. I’ve performed in notable New York theatre productions such as Wedding Date and Confessions of a Kept Woman, and have worked in various regional theatre productions including Looking Glass Review and Murder at the Café Noir. I also have hands-on experience in film and industrial projects, with featured roles and supporting parts across a range of productions from theorem to television series. I love bringing characters to life and telling compelling stories, whether on stage or on screen.

Alongside acting, I have been privately trained in voice for many years and have studied acting formally at the University of Minnesota, Drake University, and The Actors’ Institute. In addition, I have experence in VO work and recently finished a 6 week course to brush up my skills. My special skills include proficiency in medical and scientific terminology and multiple dialects, as well as a lyric soprano voice suited for Broadway, classical, and gospel styles. I am passionate about my craft and continuously work to grow in all aspects of performance and production.
