Brooklyn native Linedy Genao is a true Cinderella story. After completing her Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration at the University of Connecticut, she began a career in banking. However, after receiving a message encouraging her to audition for the first open call of Gloria & Emilio Estefan’s On Your Feet, her life changed forever. With only high school theater experience, Linedy landed her first Broadway bound show, On Your Feet, and hasn’t stopped since! Linedy has continued to rise through the ranks, most recently as the Alana/Zoe understudy on Dear Evan Hansen prior to its Broadway closing and on its first national tour. She was also recently named in Variety’s 10 Broadway Stars to Watch list. Additional credits include: Passing Through, West Side Story, Havana Music Hall, A Taste of Things to Come, and In the Heights. Linedy is honored to be the first Latina/Dominican-American to originate an Andrew Lloyd Webber Broadway bound musical. Con amor a mi familia, para siempre!
