Craig Winberry is a singer, actor and writer. Winberry’s love affair with performing began at an early age singing in the church choir.  From that point on, he knew there would always be a song and a stage in his future—and his dreams have come true in ways even beyond his vivid imagination—as an actor, singer and songwriter, and in television, film and (of course) live theater.

In addition to headlining “The Life and Music of George Michael” North American Tour, Winberry’s other live theater accomplishments include writing and starring in “Executive Order”, which earned All Out Arts Recognition for Outstanding Monologue for the Fresh Fruit Festival.  He debuted his own original holiday show, “Christmas Spirits: Neat Edition” at Broadway’s living room Feinstein’s/54 Below supper club returning this November 30, 2022. Also, Craig has taken his dramatic and comedic acting talents in the off-Broadway productions of “Global Gay” at the Lamama Experimental Theatre and “Thank You for Being a Friend: The Golden Girls Musical Parody” at the Here Arts Center.
