Welcome to my little slice of the internet. I'm Kristi Woods, an actor and vocalist based in Toronto. I’ve been lucky enough to perform on some pretty iconic stages: The Elgin Theatre, The Princess of Wales, Koerner Hall, The Sony Centre, The St. Lawrence Centre, Casino Niagara—and even Carnegie Hall in New York (still kind of pinching myself about that one). I’ve shared the stage with artists like Steven Page, Josh Groban, Jonathan Antoine, and Sarah Brightman, and every one of those moments has helped shape who I am as a performer. I’m a proud CAEA and ACTRA member, my work spans musicals, plays, film/TV, commercials and voiceovers. I launched my professional career in 2019 - right before the world hit pause. Since then, I have had the pleasure of playing Jennie Malone in Chapter Two at Stage West—a role that earned me a Calgary Theatre Critics nomination for Outstanding Leading Actor in a Comedy. I also re-lived my best 80's life in Rock of Ages at The Elgin, a high-energy production that snagged eight Dora nominations, including Outstanding Production. But I’m not just about what happens onstage. I’m also a mom, a wife, a baker, a camper, a crocheter, a caffeinator, and someone who happily welcomes dogs into my home when their humans are away. All of that real life keeps me grounded and feeds my work. Most recently I was seen playing three very different characters in the madcap comedy The Wedding Party at Theatre Orangeville, and upcoming I will be heading to The Port Stanley Theatre Festival for the world premiere of a brand new comedy-thriller, Deadly Memories by Steven Gallagher from July 29th - Aug 15th.
