About Sarah Spring

Sarah Spring is a New York–based stage and screen actor known for her command of classical text, emotional precision, and grounded physicality. She has taught and performed Shakespeare all over the world, most notably at the Craiova International Shakespeare Festival and the Prague Shakespeare Company. A graduate of Fordham University at Lincoln Center with a BA in Theater Performance, she brings a rigorous training background to roles that demand clarity, intelligence, and depth.

Her theater work spans Shakespeare, contemporary drama, and new works, with notable performances including Viola in Twelfth Night, Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing, Regan in King Lear, Lady Macbeth in Macbeth, Isabella in Measure for Measure, and The Princess of France in Love’s Labour’s Lost. She has also appeared in a wide range of character-driven productions, from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest to It’s a Wonderful Life and Orpheus Descending, collaborating with directors such as Evren Odcikin, Guy Roberts, Austin Pendleton and Charles E. Gerber.

On screen, Sarah has appeared in independent films and short-form projects, including the award-winning short A King’s Curtain, starring Austin Pendleton and Stephen McKinley Henderson. Her on-camera work reflects the same text-forward, emotionally grounded approach that defines her stage performances.

Sarah’s training includes study with Mercedes Ruehl, Jessica Hecht, Steven Skybell, Tina Benko, and Samuel D. Hunter, with specialized work in Shakespeare, text analysis, voice, movement, dialects, improv, and on-camera technique. She also studied theater and vocal performance at Interlochen Arts Academy.

In addition to acting, she is a mezzo-soprano and musician (piano and ukulele), a marathon runner, and a dedicated yoga practitioner. Her work is marked by discipline, curiosity, and a deep respect for language—qualities that continue to shape her evolving body of work across stage and screen.
