Hayley podschun biography

Hayley Podschun

Hayley Podschun, originally from Overland Park, Kansas, has been working consistently as a professional actor since the age of 10 and on Broadway since the age of 12. With eight Broadway shows, two national tours, film/television/voiceover work, and a guest host on QVC, she is a true triple threat.

From 2013-2014 Hayley was seen touring the country by bubble in the smash hit musical, Wicked, where she played her dream role of Glinda and even earned a “Best Actress in a Touring Production” win from BroadwayWorld.com (Austin, TX). She was also on the National Tour of Hairspray where she played one of the “nicest kids”, Tammy, and closed the tour as Penny Pingleton.

Broadway credits include: Hello, Dolly, Something Rotten!, Chaplin (playing Mildred Harris, Chaplin’s first wife), Anything Goes, Pal Joey, Sunday in the Park With George, Hairspray, and The Sound of Music.

New York credits include Anna Murphy in I Married An Angel at New York City Center Encores and originating the title role of Julianne Moore’s Freckleface Strawberry Off-Broadway.

A triple threat of the stage and screen, Hayley Podschun keeps rewinding the clock on her proverbial “fifteen minutes of fame” with credits that include everything from Broadway (Hello, Dolly; Something Rotten; Chaplin; Anything Goes; Pal Joey; Sunday in the Park with George; Hairspray; and The Sound of Music), Off-Broadway (Cheek to Cheek; I Married an Angel; Freckleface Strawberry), national tours (Wicked; Hairspray), and regional theater (among them, The Music Man at the Kennedy Center and Catch Me If You Can at Arena Stage, for which she received a Helen Hayes Award nomination), to TV and film (NBC’s The Blacklist; FX’s Fleishman Is in Trouble; Hairspray for New Line Cinema) and hosting, producing, and writing (The Broadway Bachelorette and Broadway Style Guide on YouTube). And there’s no end in sight for this ever-active multi-hyphenate super-talent, who’s been performing since childhood, making her professional debut at eight and Broadway at ten.
