Ciara Hickey

they/them

is a nonbinary actor based in Chicago.  Originally from Connecticut, they hold a BFA in Musical Theatre from the Chicago College of Performing Arts at Roosevelt University.  Past credits include contracts with Chicago Shakespeare Theater, Paramount Theatre, Porchlight Music Theatre, Music Theater Works, BoHo Theatre, Oak Park Festival Theatre, and Amazon Prime.  When not performing, they enjoy reading sci-fi and fantasy, playing D&D with friends, and listening to K-pop.

For your viewing pleasure, a young Ciara singing the classic, age-appropriate, “You Can’t Get a Man with a Gun” from their second grade talent show. They sing every verse. At one point they mime giving a hug, holding a mug, and a slug inching through the air (at 1:16, for the curious). Evidently, they had no idea what they were singing about.
