Matthew Marc Baum

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 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)

(No big deal or anything)

This is a scene from Robin Hood: Men in Tights, performed with my friend Jay Byron and choreographed by Professor Steve Vaughn.

After closing weekend at the Sterling Renaissance Festival, I haunted Fright Fest 2024 at Six Flags Great Adventure. I was also working on a secret project, working on a piece I hadn't seen in several years...

Then, I jumped right into rehearsals for Little King: The Orange Years, an original musical written by Cassandra Marsh and performed at FRIGID NYC under St. Mark's Place!

Looking Back...

... And looking ahead!

You can catch me at the Femmes and Friends Open Mic nights, Mondays at 7PM, hosted by NYC Suite Bar.

Besides that, I'm doing the "Audition Thing" - applying, submitting, and finding time between applying and submitting to attend in-person auditions! Such fun!

Booking/Casting

I am available for stage and screen productions, voice overs, commercials, staged readings, improv jams, birthday parties, honorable duels, dishonorable duels, acts of unbelievable heroism, cautionary tales, and other bold theatrical ventures.
