My name is Tyler Hepler and I’m an artist raised in Pittsburgh PA. My journey as a performer started in 7th grade when I was dared to audition for my school's musical and it has led me on such an incredible adventure. I was nominated for the Gene Kelly best actor award my junior and senior years of highschool, and when I won it my senior year I got to go to the Jimmy awards. At that time I decided to pursue a career in theater/storytelling, so I went to Penn State to study in their BFA Musical Theater program.

 

During my time at Penn State I learned so much about what it means to be a performer and a person. The intense training has helped prepare me for all of the journies I wish to go on, and I could not be more grateful to my professors and mentors. I was given the opportunity to work with incredible writers on their new works and with directors dedicated to bringing new life to classics. I found who I want to be as an artist, and I am so excited to take the skills I’ve learned into my professional career.

 

Now I’m based in New York and living the crazy life of an actor. I am so excited for what life has in store and for the work I will get to do as I keep growing. If you want to keep updated with my most recent news you can follow me on Instagram @heplertyler
