Lizzie Markson

To all the queers, theater nerds, dreamers, and weirdos—this one’s for you.

Lizzie Markson (she/they) is an Artist. With everything she creates, she is interested in exploring and capturing the depth, truth, messiness, beauty, ridiculousness, silliness, joy, and heartache of the human experience - whether that is playing a character in a play or musical, writing original music or poetry, creating visual art, or coaching her acting students. As an actor, they are invested in being a part of stories that crack your heart open as well as ridiculous theatre that makes you belly laugh.

In May 2024, Lizzie closed the First National Tour of "Hadestown", where she toured the country as a Fate for a year. Lizzie has also appeared on the National Tour of "Mamma Mia!" as Sophie, in the 2019 Tokyo production of "West Side Story" as Anybodys, in "Cabaret" at Asolo Repertory Theatre, and in various cabarets and workshops through NYC. 

Lizzie is queer and jewish and is interested in collaborating on projects that involve and center her own identities, people of marginalized genders and BIPOC folks. Lizzie is invested in making the musical theatre cannon more queer. You can watch one of those project's here (queering "Waitress"). If this aligns with your vision as well, please reach out to chat.

a note…

“My original art is born from my heart and my truth. My 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’.”

Sunday sippin some tea out of my tea cup and plate I painted earlier this year at @gethappymedium - a arts and crafts lovers’ haven 🥹🥰

Happy Pride. Here’s another super gay erotic collage for ya done with a Ladie’s Home Journal Magazine from 1967. 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 🩷🧡🤍🌈🌈🌈

Today I found an old doodle of mine - full of my anxiety and discontent. And then I pulled from a newspaper to collage some poetic compassion perspective and wisdom atop the colorful shadow-y (anxiety-ridden) doodles. Felt good.

Highly recommend turning your (agent) rejection email(s) into poetry. Can confirm it is quite healing and empowering.

I made this in 2020 as a total experiment. A way to express myself when theatre was gone. A way to keep my hands and brain busy. And of course an ode to queen Joni Mitchell. I love how asymmetrical and imperfect this is. How her hands don’t loo
