Singer Actor Dancer
Based in New York City
Hi there!
My name is Maria Habeeb and I am a New York City based actor, singer, dancer, and songwriter.
Growing up in Watertown, New York I spent most of my time in an ice rink as a competitive figure skater. Living that close to Canada, one has to pick up a winter sport! However, I was definitely a "music kid" along the way. Once I caught the theater bug, I attended Syracuse University where I earned a BFA in Musical Theater and I have been working professionally ever since!
As an Arab American actor, I will always support and encourage diversity and inclusion in all aspects of the arts. When I'm not performing, I am most definitely slaying it in the kitchen, pretending I'm a famous chef on The Food Network.
Previously seen in…
Maria is playing Belle in A Christmas Carol (starring Joel Mckinnon Miller from Brooklyn 99) at McCarter Theatre Center.
"Maria Habeeb is a wonderful Belle throughout and is as heartbreaking as she is candid as Belle dissolves her engagement to Scrooge."
Recently…
The off Broadway premier of:
The Gospel According to Heather
Wish You Were Here at Yale Rep. This play was written by the Pulitzer Prize winning playwright Sanaz Toossi.
