Backstage With Becca B. Ep. 119 with Delphi Borich

On this episode I talked with Delphi about whether she’s always known she wanted to perform in theatre/on stage, about living in various places around the world and continuously finding theatre in all those places, what the first show she ever saw was, her favorite regional shows she’s participated in and why, Shakespeare, getting to be a part of the National Tour of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella where she understudied Ella, the magic of playing a well known character like Ella on stage, tour life and staying healthy on the road while performing in 8 shows a week, getting to play Belle and Ariel on stage plus why representation is so important, auditioning for Into The Woods on Broadway where she understudies four roles including Little Red, Lucinda, Florinda, and Rapunzel, and sometimes is the Milky White puppeteer, making history as the first Asian American Little Red on Broadway, working alongside Sara Bareilles, Joshua Henry, and more, her dream show to be in, and much more!

Delphi Borich (she/her)

Delphi Borich was born in Tokyo, Japan before moving to New Market, England and then to multiple locations in the United States as a proud member of a military family. After dreaming of being an actor since her early days of watching The Music Man, CATS, Singing in the Rain, and White Christmas on VHS in rotation (thank you to her mom and dad for allowing this), Delphi attended Syracuse University and earned her BFA in Musical Theatre, where she was cast in her first professional show at Syracuse Stage. During her time at Syracuse, she also studied abroad at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre in London, England, and performed scenes from Romeo and Juliet as Juliet. Upon graduating, she signed with the Harden Curtis Kirsten Riley Agency, and has just been signed for another three years. After touring the country for ten months with Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella, understudying the title role she returned to New York City. Currently you can see Delphi in Into The Woods on Broadway where she understudies Little Red Ridinghood, Lucinda, Florinda, and Rapunzel.
