About

An accomplished singing actor, Ariela Morgenstern has gained recognition in theater, cabaret and opera productions in North America and Europe.

Last year she was the cover for the ground-breaking Lucille Lortel and Obie award-winning off-Broadway new musical, Adding Machine.

No stranger to new music, Ariela was first seen on the East Coast at Carnegie Hall as the soloist for the premiere of Imant Raminsh’s Symphony of Psalms.  Her specialty has always been the works of Kurt Weill and his contemporaries and she was honored to receive 2nd place at the prestigious Kurt Weill Foundation’s 2008 Lotte Lenya Competition.

Her recent theatrical credits include Man of La Mancha (Aldonza) at the Flat Rock Playhouse; Sweeney Todd (Beggar Woman), Hairspray (Velma Von Tussle), Curtains (Georgia Hendricks), Ain't Misbehavin (Armelia!), and Blithe Spirit (Elvira) at the Weathervane Theatre;  I Love You, You’re Perfect Now Change (Woman #1), at the Oregon Cabaret Theatre; Bingo! The Musical (Alison), at Center Rep; The Three Penny Opera (Jenny), at West Bay Opera; and Vanities: a New Musical (Mary cover), at Theatreworks.

She also enjoys singing with Gaucho, a highly accomplished Django Reinhardt gypsy-jazz band in San Francisco and New York.
