Biography
The movie The Wizard of Oz inspired
actress Gyda Arber to take up performing at the tender age of three. After working as a child performer with San
Francisco's Children's Opera Company for many years, in high school Gyda starred in many of her school productions
(following in the footsteps of Lowell High School's Benjamin Bratt and Carol Channing) and studied with Guinness
Book champion tapper Rosie Radiator and famed vocal coach to the stars (including Barbra Streisand) Judy Davis. Her
studies continued with her acceptance into NYU's prestigious musical theatre program. After four years of intensive
study, Gyda emerged onto the Indie Theatre scene, performing with such companies as Gorilla Rep, Inverse Theater,
Pilot House, and The Brick. She's currently in her second year at the Maggie Flanigan Studio in New York, a 2-year Meisner conservatory.
