Drew Leigh Williams recently graduated with an MFA in Acting from the Chicago College of Performing Arts Conservatory where she had the pleasure of studying with, in her opinion, the best faculty and staff in the country.

Her favorite roles include Lady Macbeth in Macbeth, Lucienne in A Flea in Her Ear, Frau Gabor in Spring Awakening and Mrs. Walker in The Who's Tommy.

Drew grew up in the woods of Pennsylvania, in a small town with zero stoplights. After falling in love with The Wizard of Oz, Drew opted out of Saturday morning cartoons and chose voice lessons, acting intensives, and dance workshops instead. Her parents continued to nurture her love of performing when they auditioned her to be a lead singer in their classic rock cover band. Drew was only 10 years old at the time, but for the next 8 years, she managed to balance her athletics, theatre training and productions to remain front-woman for the group. When she graduated Summa Cum Laude from Clarion University with a BFA in Musical Theatre, she headed straight for The Windy City.

When not on stage or in rehearsal, Drew gets to teach and play with the greatest kids in the whole, wide world as a gymnastics and dance instructor at The Little Gym of Glenview. She prides herself on coordinating and managing all of TLG Glenview's Awesome Birthday Bashes, voted #1 by Parent's Magazine in 2010
