ADRIA FIRESTONE

Adria Firestone is an international performer, university educator, keynote speaker, and artist mentor whose career has spanned more than four decades across opera, musical theatre, concert performance, teaching, and professional development. Her performance career has taken her to major stages in the United States and abroad, where she has built a reputation for combining strong technique, dramatic intelligence, and a deeply human connection to the work.

For more than two decades, Adria has also brought that professional experience into the university classroom, teaching voice, acting, movement, speech for performance, stage presence, career development, and the practical skills emerging artists need to build sustainable lives in the profession. Her work with students, performers, and professionals is grounded in the belief that technique and craft matter deeply - but the artist behind the work matters most. 

Today, Adria's work also includes keynote speaking, workshops, master classes, and private mentoring for artists navigating growth, transition, reinvention, and the business realities of a creative life. Whether she is working with a young performer finding their voice, a seasoned artist entering a new chapter, or a room full of students preparing to enter the profession, she brings clarity, honesty, experience, and a fierce commitment to helping artists step fully into who they are becoming.
