Only Make Believe
I love being part of the Acting Company of Only Make Believe, bringing the magic of live theatre to kids in hospitals and care facilities. As a certified Artist in Health, combining theatre and science in this way is so fulfilling, and I’m honored to spread smiles as we tour around four interactive plays!

Next up for this ever-evolving interactive play about AI is a performance this March at the National Symposium of Theatre in Academia. I'm looking forward to traveling to Virginia with my cast, and becoming bionic once more as I step back into my role of the chatbot GPT-4.

I'm having such fun stepping into Brenda's little white nursing shoes in Catch Me If You Can at Mountain Theatre Company in North Carolina this July & August! ・・・ "Melody Munitz's solo, 'Fly, Fly Away,' is breathtaking in its range and its deep, heartfelt longing ." - Laurel Magazine "The one song by Frank's fiancé, 'Fly, Fly Away, ' performed by Melody Munitz, is worth the price of admission alone." - Steve Sheppard |

Fiddler On The Roof
at North Shore
It was an incredibly meaningful experience making my North Shore Music Theatre debut this June, playing Hodel in Fiddler on the Roof.

“Melody Munitz brings great depth to Hodel as well as a comic touch. Melody’s soprano voice soars in 'Matchmaker' and is especially gorgeous in the gut wrenching 'Far from the Home I Love.'" - Tony's Corner
"As Hodel, Melody Munitz is vivid, direct, evocative, with a strong dramatic presence, and does a great job in making 'Matchmaker' a terrific moment. But her most vivid vocal capacities come through in her wonderful solo ballad 'Far From The Home I Love.'" - Boston Arts Diary

It was a blast playing Toothy in Toothy's Treasure this spring Off-Broadway at Soho Playhouse. This hilarious new musical comedy is a crossroads between scripted musical theatre, improv comedy, and audience interaction - with a healthy dose of pirates! |

Lucky Stiff
Off-Broadway
I was honored to Associate Direct J2 Spotlight's Off-Broadway revival of Lucky Stiff this May. It was thrilling to work alongside Director Rob Schneider to bring this hilarious musical back to NYC, and to collaborate closely with the incredible duo of Ahrens & Flaherty.
American Girl Live
National Tour
I had the time of my life leading the first National Tour of American Girl Live!, originating the role of Madison -- the newest American Girl character who (pinching myself) was inspired by me! It was a wild dream come true and an honor to be "the voice of the new generation" (Mattel, Inc.).

I had a very fulfilling time originating the lead role of GPT-4 (yep, the chatbot!) in this fascinating, genre-bending new play about the role of AI in society. Being part of the play's development for over a year was such an exciting meld of my theatrical & scientific passions, and getting a gleaming NY Times review was a thrill!

Melody Munitz plays the A.I., giving embodied voice to its words. Munitz wears a vest with haptics and LED lights that is linked with an EEG headset that generates BCI (brain-computer-interface) instructions for movement, an element that has an increasingly important effect as the play -- along with Munitz's impressive and progressively physical performance -- proceeds. - ThinkingTheatreNYC

It was a thrill to take on famous literary leading lady Elizabeth Bennet in August for the regional premiere of a new musical adaptation of Pride & Prejudice, written by Tony nominee Paul Gordon. What a treat it was to share a wonderful new version of this timeless tale in a 1,200 seat theatre in beautiful Coeur d'Alene, Idaho! |

Until then, here is a highlight reel with some favorite moments from the concert!
