Matthew Marc Baum
Actor/Singer/Stage Combatant
Hi, my name is Matt.
I'm an actor based out of NYC, having moved here in March 2024. In the time since, I've made my Broadway, Off-Broadway, and Off-Off-Broadway debuts with original pieces written and directed by fantastic and creative collaborators.
I graduated from SUNY Fredonia in 2023, earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Acting. I am wildly passionate about this craft, taking any chance I can to invest in doing the work and network with other hardworking artists!
Armed and Dangerless
I've participated in a number of Skills Proficiency Tests, having earned the title of Intermediate Actor-Combatant from the Society of American Fight Directors for the following weapons:
Unarmed
Knife*
Quarterstaff*
Single Sword*
Rapier & Dagger*
Broadsword*
(* signifies a Recommended Pass)
This is a scene from Robin Hood: Men in Tights, performed with my friend Jay Byron and choreographed by Professor Steve Vaughn.
The last year has been one of foundational growth, and I have been keeping myself busy trying on all the new hats I wear!
From a summer of menacing as a monster-of-the-week at Camp Half-Blood in Prospect Park, to a production of Neil Simon's The Sunshine Boys at the Hunterdon Hills Playhouse, to producing an independent clown-wrestling act in association with The Armored League...
I've had a lot on my plate.
Looking Back...
... And looking ahead!
Summer 2026 is FULL of opportunities to catch me working!
July 4th and 5th, Chain Theatre, Spotlight New Works Festival.: Trial by Jury Duty, a new mini-musical directed by the extraordinary Alexa Powell!
July 17, Fever Dream Players: An immersive and interactive cabaret, a summer camp that blurs the line between real and fantastical.
August 13, Chelsea Table + Stage: The Schmidt Sisters EP Launch Concert! A new musical that I was lucky enough to be invited to record on, the evening is a celebration of independent theatrical dedication and the grit of making the change you want to see.
Booking/Casting
I am available for stage and screen productions, VO, commercials, staged readings, improv jams, birthday parties, honorable duels, dishonorable duels, acts of unbelievable heroism, cautionary tales, and other bold theatrical ventures.
