MY BIO:
Sarah Glassman is an actor, singer, songwriter, teacher, and pianist, whose work has enabled her to become one of the most versatile artists in NYC.

Originally from Western Kansas, Sarah began playing piano before she could read a book. Considered a child prodigy, she quickly advanced to studying classical piano at the collegiate level under professor John Huber. By the time she turned 12, Sarah had a professional career in the Catholic Church as an organist/pianist. During her college years, Sarah discovered her passion for singing, and went on to receive a B.A. in classical voice from Fort Hays State University under Juilliard Grad, Dr. James Brown.

Sarah moved to NYC in 2006, and was immediately hired as a music director for cabaret shows at Don’t Tell Mama’s. She then went on to play the role of Rapunzel in a regional production of Into the Woods, followed by an honorable performance at the Waldorf Hotel which honored Patti Lupone. She soon thereafter began studying voice with world renowned vocal coach Professor William Riley. It was Riley’s teaching technique that inspired Sarah to begin educating others as a private vocal coach throughout the Tri-State area.

As a music director, Sarah’s sight-reading skills have provided her with endless opportunities to work with artists of all genres. She most recently received two 2018 Josie award nominations for Music director of the year for her work on the regionally produced productions of Something’s Afoot and Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (WON). Sarah was the only female nominated in this category and was also the only music director to be nominated twice.

Sarah’s work as a private vocal coach has done nothing but provide her with joy. She shares her knowledge at From Stage to Screen performing arts school on a weekly basis, and also coaches privately in NYC. Sarah’s students have gone on to book national tours, regional tours, and have also performed at professional ball games.

In 2015, Sarah formed the Sarah Glassman Band, and released her debut EP Toxic, which can be found on ITunes and Spotify. She is currently in collaboration with cabaret staple Joshua J. Bennett, working on producing new original music under the duo name Montana Hays. In the brunt of the pandemic, Sarah co-released a holiday album with Joshua titled "It's Christmas, Have You Heard".

As a performer, Sarah regularly performs in NYC piano bars. You may find Sarah at Townhouse Piano Bar on Tuesdays and Fridays, as well as dueling with the Flying Ivories. She also frequently subs at the Duplex and Brandy's.

Sarah also founded HiGlass Productions with her colleague, seasoned performer Ryan Hiers in 2017. It’s within her production company that Sarah spawned the Nasty Women Cabaret series, which has provided a platform for people to experiment with new material in a safe, inspiring environment. HiGlass Productions has a residency in the west village at the Players Theatre, where you can find Sarah music directing heightened cabaret productions every other month.
