To all the queers, theater nerds, dreamers, and weirdos—this one’s for you.
Lizzie Markson (she/they) is a multi-hyphenate artist and collaborator - invested in stories that crack your heart open and make you belly laugh.
Lizzie explores the depth, truth, messiness, beauty, ridiculousness, silliness, joy, and heartache of the human experience - whether that is acting, writing original music or poetry, creating visual art, coaching actors and singers, or collaborating on something brand new with other artists.
Lizzie is very queer and proud, and is invested in making the musical theatre cannon more queer. You can watch one of those project's here (reimagining "Waitress" through a queer lens). Lizzie is also invested in making new work that is made by and for queer and trans people. If this aligns with your mission vision as well, please reach out to chat and let's make something together.
Lizzie is jewish and is interested in telling stories that are queer, jewish, that is made by and for folks of marginalized genders and BIPOC folks.

a note…
My art-making process is experimental and improvisational. To the right you’ll find an original song, a cover that is an original medley of two of my favorite songs by some of my favorite artists (Joni Mitchell, Sara Bareilles, and Ingrid Michaelson), a piece of original SoundArt called “My Heart is a Wild Bird” that was inspired by an anxious heart, big desires, 2020, and Glennon Doyle’s ‘Untamed’.”
I am also a part of a band called, “Lesser Known Women". We perform queer folk, country, Americana around the city. You can check us out on Spotify, and stay up to date on upcoming shows on our instagram.
