Actor. Director. Teacher.
(she/her)
Queer. Kentuckian. Seriously Fun.
Hi! I'm Leah.
I am Leah Raidt:
a spunky, queer actor/director/educator based in Chicago, IL by way of Louisville, KY.
Debunking the “starving, struggling artist” myth is the heart of my mission. I want to be the Brené Brown of theatre making— equipping others to heal artistic injuries, and cultivate mindsets rooted in abundance, bravery, and joy.
“Follow your Bliss”
—Joseph Campbell
