I am Jenna Payne: an EMC, Chicago-based actress with NYC aspirations. 

I am a dreamer, a believer, a music maker, a creator, & a storyteller. 

I am supported by loved ones, fueled by coffee, & saved by Emergen-C.

I am inspired by Bernadette Peters, Kristin Chenoweth, Laura Osnes, Jessie Mueller, & Betsy Wolfe. 

I am passionate about having a career that allows me to educate, explore, & perform through the incomparable experience of live theatre. 

 

Jenna xoxo
