NATALIE TURNER

ABOUT NATALIE

Natalie is a Mezzo-Soprano from Warwick, Rhode Island, and is currently pursuing her master’s degree in Vocal Performance at the Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University. Natalie specializes in “pants roles” or roles where mezzo-sopranos portray young men. Her statuesque height and love of acting allow Natalie to dive into these roles with ease.

Natalie had the pleasure of portraying the iconic pants role of Cherubino from "Le Nozze di Figaro" with the Saluzzo Opera Academy located in Saluzzo, Italy. Natalie’s natural comedic personality flourished with Cherubino receiving a standing ovation for her performance. Recently, Natalie performed the role of Hansel in Nicholas Hersh’s new jazz arrangement of Humperdinck’s "Hansel and Gretel" with the Peabody Opera Studio and Annapolis Opera Company.

When Natalie isn't on stage she enjoys creating social media content, drinking dirty chai's with her friends at their favorite coffee spot (Baby's on Fire, Baltimore, MD), being on the party planning and social media committees at the Friedheim Library, hiking with her boyfriend around Rhode Island, and relaxing with their recently rescued cat Muppet.
