She has studied with the great Larry Moss, as well as at The Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theater and the Esper Studio in New York. She is a proud member of a Massachusetts fringe company Exiled Theatre, having last appeared in a well received production of Harold Pinter’s Ashes to Ashes.

C.HOPE BELMONT (Co-Producer)

From a sheep farm in the Midwest to the bright lights of NYC, C. Hope has always marched to the beat of her own drum. After attending the U. of Michigan and acting school, she moved to New York and formed her own band, People of the Streets. Stand-up comedy soon beckoned and since then, she has continued to hone her craft studying improv at The Pit. Her one-woman auto-biographical musical, Surviving Hope, will soon be back on the boards and she LOVES producing/acting in short films. (Four so far this last year and will be filming the web-series to Vigilantes in early 2018.) She is also a Voiceover artist and enjoys doing narration & audio-books. She currently studies TV-film acting with Anthony Grasso and is excited for all the opportunities NYC now offers. In addition to her career, she is a certified Pilates & Gyrotonic instructor and relishes the fact she is the quintessential “late bloomer”.(Thank you God!) In her spare time she plays with her beloved kittys, watches the fishys and enjoys horseback riding & swimming. www.chopebelmont.com
