Who am I?
Hello! My name is Jack Berleman-Paul, and I'm so glad to have you here!
I grew up in Oak Park, Illinois, and I've been surrounded by music my entire life, attending my first concert when I was just 10 days old. I love every aspect of theatre, and I'm also incredibly passionate about the outdoors, and connecting with people. I always love exploring new places and new faces, and I'm excited to see where this ride takes me.
What am I currently up to?
I am a senior at Illinois Wesleyan University, pursuing a BFA in Music Theatre. Some select IWU credits include: The Editor (Renascence), Steve/Jonathan (Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical), and most recently, Tybalt (Romeo and Juliet). I also help run the Phoenix Theatre, our student produced theatre at Illinois Wesleyan! I always try to keep myself busy and have new projects to work on, whether it's acting, directing, music directing, or any challenge I choose to pursue!
What's next?
As of now, I am finishing my degree at Illinois Wesleyan and will graduate in May of 2026! In February of 2026, I will be putting up my Senior Capstone project, so stay tuned for more information about that. And, in April, I will be playing Mr. Darcy in Illinois Wesleyan's production of Pride and Prejudice.
