Kushi Beauchamp is an actor, playwright and teaching artist currently based in Kansas City, MO. After receiving her BA in Theatre from Lewis & Clark College, Kushi has performed locally and abroad, recently appearing at KC Rep as Belle in A Christmas Carol, and Tinkerbell in Peter Pan & Wendy. She will now only be accepting roles with the word “bell” in the name. Other recent credits include Big Love, Grounded, Fixing King John, The Motherf*cker with the Hat, and Thinner Than Water (UMKC)
After graduating from UMKC, Kushi looks forward to exploring more opportunities in regional theatre, film/tv and voice over. She has workshopped her original scripts and performance art at multiple theatrical homes including Charlotte Street Scratch Night (right here in KC), at Risk/Reward’s Pavement Festival in Portland, OR, and as a two time resident of From The Ground Up’s playwriting program. Kushi also loves to teach - she has led summer theater camps and taught theater to ages 6 to undergrad! She has also recently ventured into commercial work, appearing in spots for Hallmark and Huggies Pull-Ups.
You’ll be able to catch her onstage this summer at The Coterie in their production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! After that, who knows…you’ll have to stay tuned!
