Meet Elizah!

Hello! My name is Elizah Knight. I am an actor, singer, dancer, and budding writer. Originally from New Hampshire, I grew up wandering the forest, tap dancing, and playing pretend. Happily, not much has changed!

In middle school I moved to Tucson, Arizona where I discovered my love for theatre and began training more rigorously as a dancer. I danced competitively for 10+ years in everything from ballroom to tap, contemporary, jazz and ballet. Throughout high school I also studied both musical theatre voice and opera, played the cello, and had the opportunity to participate in community musicals (Yes, that did include Cats). No matter what medium creativity took, it was the art itself and the collaborators I met along the way who were the real excitement!

I was lucky to be able to continue my arts education at the collegiate level at Ithaca College, and graduated in May 2023 with my BFA in Musical Theater and a minor in Writing. Recent opportunities have included performing in new works such as reading in Banksy, directed by Denis Jones, and in Iva Brdars award-winning And What Happens If I Don’t, as well as classical pieces such as House of Desires where I played aristocrat Doña Ana, (pictured here) and Viola in Twelfth Night the Musical. I am deeply grateful for my education and seek to be a lifelong learner. I am currently signed with About Artists Agency!

On the writing end, I recently finished my first novella, Object Permanence and am working on a novel. You can always check my instagram @elizahknight to see what I’ve been reading or what outdoor adventures I’ve been on recently with friends!

Overall, I strive to bring intentional kindness and the joy of collaboration to any room I am invited into and look forward to a lifetime of creation.
