About Me


            Andrew Greiche was born in New Hyde Park, New York on May 21st, 1997. Greiche first picked up acting when he was in Kindergarten when he went to Disney World, Florida with his parents where he participated in a children’s production of Beauty and the Beast as Gaston.
            Later that year, his parents, Kathy, a high school World Languages Chairperson, and Michael, an auditor, signed him up for acting classes and participated in various classes from 2002-2011. When he was seven years old, he landed his first job as Harry in Dirty Laundry which starred Loretta Divine. When he was eleven years old, he discovered his passion for singing in his elementary school production of Surviving the Applewhites: the Musical. Greiche has acted in numerous college films at NYU, New York Film Academy, and SVA. At age twelve, Greiche worked with Morgan Spurlock as Jake Williams in Spurlock’s documentary of the book Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt. Throughout Greiche’s time in Herricks Middle School and the time he’s had at Herricks High School, he’s played as Captain Georg (George) Von Trapp in The Sound of Music, Sky Masterson in Guys and Dolls, Motel Kamzoil in Fiddler on the Roof, Lieutenant Joseph Cable in South Pacific, J. B. Biggley in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and Adolfo Pirelli in Sweeney Todd
         In 2013, Greiche participated in the NATS Competition (National Association of Teachers of Singing) in the lower high school division for both musical theatre and classical singing and won first place in both categories. He was also a semi finalist in the classical high school division in the Classical Singer competition that same year.
            Greiche’s philosophy for his passion is to keep trying and never give up on your dreams and he has to thank his parents for their support and encouragement throughout the years. Currently, Greiche is studying voice with Tammy Hensrud, a professor at Hofstra University and a professional opera singer. He is also studying acting with Luke Delalio at Herricks High School in a program called STAC (Student Television Arts Company) which is a multidisciplinary program for students passionate about the fine and performing arts. Greiche is also studying dance at American Theater Dance where Natalie Portman also studied dance. Greiche plans on pursuing musical theatre and film acting as a profession in the future and wishes to major in musical theatre when he goes off to college.
