About Me

Hello, my name is Weston Pytel and I am an actor, which you probably already know. But I digress...
Born and raised in Meriden, CT my performance journey started at the age of 10 with a YMCA arts program, Meriden Youth Theatre, in my hometown. It sparked my interest in the performing arts and helped set the foundation for my development as the performer I am today.
Most recently, I graduated from Nazareth College, now Nazareth University, with my B.F.A. in Musical Theatre in the Spring of 2023. I have since then performed at Cortland Repertory Theatre as The Cowardly Lion in the Wizard of Oz for which I received a "Best Performer in a Musical" nomination for Broadway World's 2023 Central New York Awards.
In my daily life, I enjoy rewatching episodes of the greatest sitcom of all time (Frasier) with my family, cooking something new in the kitchen, as well as reading lots and lots of books.
I am incredibly grateful for all the family, friends, and mentors who have influenced me as a person and their contribution to my life as an artist.
