With his expressive physical nature, ability to create character voices, and natural musicality, Vincent Ricciardi has played many diverse roles on stage and in film.
At only 19 years old, Vincent was cast as the understudy in the title role of Jekyll and Hyde at Cultural Arts Playhouse. In 2003, he performed in the Long Island premiere of The Melody Lingers On: The Songs of Irving Berlin, and his first Off-Broadway performance in the musical review Broadway Blockbusters Take II. Over the next few years, Vincent rounded out his performance credits to include the Player King in Hamlet No, an abridged version of William Shakespeare's Hamlet; and Rev. Buckhorn in the well-received production of Holy Ghosts, which received the ACTF award for Outstanding Ensemble. In the spring of 2005, Vincent gained 25 lbs for the role of Frankie in the world premiere of the Mafia Comedy All Dolled Up; produced by Colin Quinn of SNL and written by Bobby Spillane. Vincent has also appeared in three workshops by composer/writer Jon Montgomery, Hell's Kitchen the Musical, In the Still of the Night and The Miracle Age. Recently, he co-starred in the independent film Enjoy Yourself. Vincent has also appeared on various concept recordings for a number of new musicals and was recently cast as Alec on the concept recording for Tess: the Musical, one of the show's leading roles.
At a young age, Vincent Ricciardi found himself on stage performing, and has always felt at home there. His training began his senior year of High School when he was accepted into Nassau BOCES Cultural Arts Center to study musical theater. In the fall of 2000, Vincent entered Adelphi University's Theater and Music Programs, where he studied both modern and classical forms of acting, theater, music history, voice, music theory and movement training that included dance and mime.
Vincent is continuing to pursue stage and film roles in the hopes to become a better-rounded artist. With his penchant for character parts and willingness to take on new types of roles, he is a strong asset in any cast.
