About Alexei Sebastian Cifrese

I have been a stage actor in Seattle for about ten years now. In that time, I have played everything from imperial space villains to socially anxious daffodils.

As a playwright, I've had my work produced at several theaters, most notably Café Nordo (O Succulent!), Annex Theatre (The Vampires of the Neverwood), and most recently Noveltease Theatre (Sleeping Beauty and the Bear Prince).

As a drag queen, I've been putting the "B" in "Subtlety" since 2017. I'm best known for my burlesque & variety shows Ah, Yes, The Two Genders, This Will Probably Not Suck, and most recently, my solo show: The Phantom of the Opera but Every Character Sings a Different Language and also I Play All the Parts. 

Notable acts I've created include a Torn Sheet of Notebook Paper, a Hawaiian Pizza, and Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2. 

Somewhere in between all of that, there was a pandemic. So, I did what any sensible person would do:

Pivot and become a voice actor!  

I began training first at the Seattle Voice Academy where I completed their 101-201 series. After attending my first VO conference in 2022, I went on to study with Dave Fennoy and Anna Garduno, the latter of whom is currently producing my commercial demo!

I am a regular participant in Randall Ryan's VO Workout Groups, and am continuing my VO education in Narration, ADR, Animation and Commercial with the lovely instructors here at Closing Credits.

 

My home recording studio is a luxurious apartment closet, featuring a Shure MV7 microphone, a Solid State Logic 2 audio interface, and fitted with the finest moving blankets Home Depot had to offer.  

Now. What does all of this mean to you, dear reader? 

It means that if you are looking for a voice talent with versatility, a deft ability to acquire languages and dialects, a collaborative spirit, studio-quality audio; someone who is both professional yet affordable and approachable, you need look no further.

     

I'm a fringe theatre artist at heart. I firmly believe in producing good work at any budget, on any timeline, and about any subject.

I want to work with you, wherever you may be in your creative journey.  

So, let's make something cool together.
