about
Welcome!
​
My name is Whitney Minarik. Originally from Detroit, I'm a Chicago-based actor, director, teaching artist, and arts administrator. I have a passion for performance, but also love working in theatre education, with young people in particular.
​
I have trained at Wayne State University, the Moscow Art Theatre School, and The Artistic Home Studio. Additionally, I have a Master's degree in Theatre Education from The Catholic University of America.

I am represented by Stavins Talent. To view my complete resume, click below.

Coming soon to Towle Theater: Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson - Apt 2B by Kate Hamill.
​
I portray Sherlock Holmes in Hamill's irreverent, darkly comic, and modern take on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous sleuth.
I was featured on the podcast "What's Up, Glenview?"
​
We discussed education offerings at Oil Lamp Theater and our brand new location, The SPARK CENTER for Performing Arts.
