ABOUT ME
Colin Villacorte is many things. An actor, musician, writer, singer-songwriter, teacher, but at the end of the day he is a collaborative spirit who thrives off of storytelling and performance. He is a senior acting major at Point Park University in Pittsburgh, where he currently is based, and is pursuing a BFA in Acting. At Point Park he has so far been cast in six shows through the conservatory (Kentucky, Sense and Sensibility, ≈ [Almost Equal To], The Winter’s Tale, Arcadia, 12 Ophelias), been seen in student-directed work (Today, I Looked Up, The Mystery of Twicknam Vicarage, What is Love?), and played Feste in Pittsburgh Shakespeare in the Park’s production of Twelfth Night in September 2024. He taught himself how to play guitar over the COVID-19 pandemic, and has since then integrated his musical skills into some of the shows he’s been cast in. He has also taught himself how to play bass guitar, drums, percussion, ukulele, harmonica, and mandolin (he was forced into piano at a young age, but he still knows how to play!). He teaches guitar, piano, bass, drums, and gives voice lessons to his students back at home at Bach to Rock, a music school in Northern Virginia. He writes, records, and produces original alternative rock music under the name “Real Tearz”, which streams on all music streaming platforms. He is an avid chef and foodie, loves cats and video games, and is always down for a few games of pickleball.
