In 2007, John Cencio Burgos was
selected to serve as a Resident Artist
with the Harmony Theatre Company.
Mr. Burgos recently appeared as the title
role in the staged reading of Chili at The
Ensemble Studio Theatre. He has
played everything from a bear to a
chicken. “It’s nice to be human every
once in a while.” Off-off Broadway:
The Wiz ("Lion"); Holes ("Mr.
Pendanski"); The Little Lame Prince
("Son"); Bocon ("Luis", "Judge", "Voice
Keeper"); Theater Soup ("Chicken
Little/Story teller"). Film/Television:
MTV Commercial “Be Safe” (directed
by Joel Shumacher). John has trained
for eight years at the Abrons Arts
Center in the arts of singing, dance
(Salsa, Flamenco), and theatre (musical,
dramatic, comedy, improv). He has
also taken a master class with the
Labyrinth Theater Company taught by
George Wolfe and John Patrick Shanley,
just to name a few. With the Harmony
Theatre Company, Mr. Burgos has
performed as an off-stage singer and the
understudy to "Hermann" in Cabaret,
"Daniel Beauxhomme" in Once on This
Island, and he has originated the roles of
"David Romero" in Beware: Bernadette! A
Musical Fable and "Mikey de los Reyes"
in Richmond: A Musical Fantasia. “I’m so
happy to be back with the gang. It’s
always good to be in an environment
that is professional and fun and at the
same time, a place were you can feel at
home. Special thanks to Ben Cohn and
Yvonne Gutierrez for giving me the
tools and the confidence that got me
into this production. As always and
forever, thank you to my mother for her
continued love and support, and to my
family and friends for coming out,
supporting and also believing in me,
and to Ismael, my best critic. I love you
all.”
