About

Porter Eldredge is a Twin Cities based Actor & Multi-hyphenate theatre artist. Being  multi-passionate, they strive for excellence onstage and in fight choreography, partner dance, juggling, accents and more. They also have aspirations as a director, designer, and administrator. Their work as an actor has been seen professionally at The Illinois Shakespeare Festival, The Theatre at Monmouth, The Birth Play Project, Frosted Glass Creative, & Nautilus Music Theatre.

Originally from Salt Lake City, Utah the love of nature and a community oriented generosity informs all of their work. Growing up, they went to the Utah Shakespeare Festival every summer. As a result, creating powerful & accessible work on a regional level is their chief artistic goal. Porter is a graduating Senior at the University of Minnesota / Guthrie Acting BFA program.

While studying at UMN, Porter also minored in Russian Language and has a profound respect for the works of Leo Tolstoy & Anton Chekhov. They aspire to direct or get to act in any work that follows in that great lineage. Their ultimate goal is to become an Artistic Director with a theatrical home that allows them to continue their love of classic work in both an administrative & performance capacity.

When they are not tripping across the stage, scanning their text, or doing Meisner repetition, they're probably training for another marathon, reading Russian literature or watching a baseball game - go Cubs!
