Alex Hemsath

Gilbert and Sullivan has been a part of Alex’s life since age six, when the very first VHS tape (remember those?) his parents bought was the Broadway production of The Pirates of Penzance. In college he started performing with the Rice Light Opera Society in Houston, Texas, and then with the Gilbert and Sullivan Society of Houston from 2002 until 2016, before relocating to Oregon in 2017. In 2019 he performed in the Portland Phoenix Choir’s production of Pirates of Penzance. Outside of musical theater, Alex has performed with several professional chamber choirs including Houston Bach Choir, Cantare Houston, and VOX: The Rob Seible Singers. Alex is excited to have found a place in Portland to continue expressing his love of G&S.
