What do I do?
Hi! I'm Teddy Skye Garcia, a writer, performer, and non-profit founder working for LGBTQ+ and disability rights/joy. Whether you're looking to hire me, cast me, or you've just stumbled upon this website off the dark web, there's something for you!
Writing
I am an accomplished play and speech writer, with my youth play "A Narrator's Story" getting a full fledged production in 2019, and was a semi-finalist for the Blank Theater's Young Playwright Festival. I've written award winning speeches, plays, and poetry, revived a college student literary publication, and am currently in development of two short films, a comedy pilot, and an original musical.
Performance
I've been performing since age 5 and have continued honing my craft since then. After winning a National Youth Art Award (Best Supporting), I made my Off-Broadway debut as Hermann & Featured Vocalist in Cabaret. I am music director for On A Sensual Note at AU, a lower voice a-capella group, and am directing staged readings here as well. "Garcia is a powerhouse of voice and talent. Endlessly funny with real heart behind it all." - Ventura Star.
Production
Event production is a specialty of mine, working to produce events of all types. Pride Prom Ventura County 2023 was produced under my advisement and leadership, and Home For The Holi-Gays, a sold out variety show raising over $2,000 for queer youth is my shining success. I plan for bigger productions soon, including self producing a short film and my new musical.
Non-Profit
At 16 years old, I began my own 503(c) non-profit, TRANScend Youth, dedicated to advocacy, public speaking, and events for and by trans and queer youth. I've tabled at some of Southern California's biggest pride events, spoken at many trans centered events, and helped create and facilitate events that look to help and spread joy for queer youth.
Design
As a multi-media artist, I've worked in stage/costume design, fiber arts, digital art, photography, and more. The "Visual & Design" and the "Photo Journalism" tabs up on this website can give you a sample of some of my more recent work in the visual and physical artistic fields.
