Soprano (with mezzo extension, belting capability)
Maria Wirries is a Haitian-American soprano, composer, and musical theatre performer whose multidisciplinary artistry spans Broadway stages, original musical composition, and vocal performance across classical and contemporary idioms.
Defining moments and milestones
Beginning her professional journey at nineteen with an understudy role in the Broadway production of *Dear Evan Hansen* in 2018, Maria Wirries has steadily expanded her presence as both a versatile musical theatre performer and an emerging composer-lyricist. Her soprano voice—characterized by lower mezzo extension and powerful belting capacity—has been featured in Off-Broadway revivals and concert performances, while her parallel work developing original musicals through the BMI and Goodspeed programs demonstrates a commitment to theatrical creation beyond interpretation. Her casting as Star in the forthcoming Broadway revival of *The Lost Boys* marks a watershed moment in her career, positioning her as a principal performer on one of Broadway's most prominent stages.
