Lindsey Aeriel Grimble

Born on June 10, 1986

I became fascinated w/ Theatre when my grandmother introduced me to our theatre center in my Hometown in Illinois.

My 1st experience on stage was during my fathers concert ( which his opening act happened to be Mark Wahlberg) at our convention center downtown......It was the most nerve racking and energized feeling ever at the age of 5 stepping onto that stage. I had always done school productions every Christmas , Easter and of course was in my churches choir , but it wasnt until my freshman year of high school did I step onstage doing community theatre work. I guess I was just so nervous but this is coming from a girl who would write dozens of school pop songs, write screen plays during class and make my younger cousins perform w/ me infront of my family during holidays. Lets not forget record all the concerts I saw on tv and learn all the choreography, then make up my own dances and perform my own concerts .Once I stepped foot onstage for my 1st regional theatre show in 2001 in Big River I knew I could do "all things with Christ who strengthens me" PHIL 4 :13- WOW( It doesnt seem that long ago).....9 years.Since then I have had quite a Journey!.....now 23yrs old.... since 18 i have lived in 5 different states due to performing...I never thought.....OK I guess I did- ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!

Just ended a Off-Broadway run of Dream Babies at ATA in Time Sq.

and currently involved with a amazing Musical Revue known as DISENCHANTED:Bitches of the Kingdom
