Becca Anderson
IS A MULTI-AWARD-WINNING ACTRESS
based in Charleston, SC. Born a Georgia Peach, Becca was first an athlete. Following her brothers' footsteps wherever they led, she was an all-star competitive swimmer (Junior Olympics - 50 meter breaststroke) and springboard diver, a ballerina, as well as a baseball, softball, basketball, soccer, and tennis player. She marched from the field to piano to choir and ultimately onto the stage.
Becca received a Masters in Media & Performing Arts from the Savannah College of Art & Design where she was awarded an artistic achievement fellowship and was selected to be a member of the President's singing ensemble. She received a BA in French and Theatre from the College of Charleston and the Universite Paul Valery III in Montpellier, France. Becca studied Music Theatre Performance under Bill Wesbrooks at New York University and Drama under Bob Francesconi at the South Carolina Governor’s School for the Arts.
Anderson joined Sweet William Collective (NYC) in mounting their inaugural production of Ron Fitzgerald’s Parts Unknown and has worked in television, film, commercials, and print. She has been seen on stage regionally with 34 West, PURE Theatre, What If?

Born a Georgia peach, but raised in Northern Virginia and South Carolina, my childhood was full of dreams of being an Olympic swimmer, professional ballerina, concert pianist, and going to the top of the Eiffel Tower. I made it to the Junior-Olympics in the 50-meter breaststroke and was a springboard diver, soccer, baseball, basketball, tennis, softball player, choral singer, actress, pianist, and ballerina.
With a love of travel, I studied Arts & Literature abroad in Amersfoort, Netherlands, Caen & Montpellier, France and London, England. I began my professional actor's training at SCGSA studying Drama under Bob Francesconi, Barry Kur, Marilyn McIntyre, and Mollie Murray, with emphasis on both the Stanislavski and Meisner Techniques, mask and movement, alignment, and voice. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and French at College of Charleston (Robert Ivey, Maida Libkin, Joy Vandervort-Cobb). Later, studying Music Theatre at New York University with Bill Wesbrooks followed by a Masters in Performance at Savannah College of Art & Design with Andrew Levine and Bruce Roach.
After a stint in New York City working with Sweet William Collective on Ron Fitzgerald's Parts Unknown, being on set with Glenn Close (!), working at the legendary Colony Records, and spending all my money on Broadway shows, I eventually made my way back to Charleston, SC. I spent several years in the music industry working in sales & education getting to live my rocker fantasies at NAMM and serving as a VH1 Save the Music liaison.
I love stepping into someone else's shoes and sharing in the universal emotions of human connection. When I'm not performing, you can find me working on my mean Pez collection, crashing French Bulldog meetups, and always loving Dan "The Man".
