CHRISTINE HORN
does for soul music what a hit play does for Broadway. She enriches it by
expanding its boundaries. The Bronx, NY native brings theatrics to her music
that's unlike any seen from today's neo-soul performers. In an age where the
majority of R&B and nu-soul divas insist on giving good face as much as a
good show, Horn delights in exposing audiences to an emotionally charged
audio/visual performance that conjures up memories of the soul queens of the
past.
~ACTRESS~
It is her taste for the eclectic that drives Horn, both as a singer and
an actress. Her music runs the gamut of human
emotions. While effortlessly blending elements of R&B, Soul, Funk and Folk,
Christine uses her versatile voice to bathe you in good music.
~SINGER~
Horn's music theatrics stem from her exposure to the theater as a child. "My
mom always took me to go see plays and made it a point to expose me to so many
different things.”
~SONGWRITER~
While in high school, Horn became a major player in the Freddie Hendricks Youth Ensemble of Atlanta (YEA). Horn rapidly developed her acting skills at YEA and upon graduation, enrolled at the American Musical Dramatic Academy (AMDA) in New York City, where she immediately became a standout performer. At AMDA, Horn honed her skills in acting and musical theater. Horn's experiences in both YEA and AMDA exposed her to the mainstream theatrical scene. Christine has performed with the BROADWAY and both US National Touring companies of Disney’s“The Lion King” as Nala, Sarabi and in the Ensemble. Regional theatre credits include working with great directors at The Alliance Theatre, Jomandi Productions, Actor’s Express, Gainesville Theatre Alliance, Horizon Theatre &Seven Stages Theatre.
~"Acting is my
heart, but I love to sing."~
Horn's associations in the thespian community presented her with the
opportunity to hone her craft in the film world, where she has appeared in such
movies as “Stomp The Yard” starring Columbus Short, "The
Killer Next Door" starring Billy Dee Williams, "Jinx'd"starring Atlanta radio
personality Ryan Cameron & the soon to be released
feature, “Blood Done Sign My Name” starring Nate
Parker.
Although acting became Horn's first love, music was never far behind. "Acting is my heart, but I love to sing," Horn says. Christine’s chameleonic use of melody, language, dialect and drama enables her to touch those who are searching for that extra bit of enlightenment, individuality and entertainment in their music.
~"I'm still waiting on the role of a lifetime."~

I’ve been out of the loop lately…its because I’ve been in Las Vegas performing in “The Lion King.” This time around I’m in the ensemble and understudying the role of “Nala” (see pic.) So much fun. I’ll be here until January…then back to Hollywood!
I met Sindbad at a press event in Beverly Hills earlier this month. He was so funny and so nice.
A friend of mine found some old footage from a show I did back in 2006 in Atlanta. I thought you might enjoy. What were you doing in 2006?

Greetings to all of my beautiful friends out there!
Just a quick note to let you know I just finished filming “September Morning.” This film is set in 1864 and tells the story of a young boy who is dealt a very hard task. He meets a special man along the way and learns many life lessons. My character, RACHEL was the main female in the movie. It was a great outlet to show off my dramatic side. This movie will be submitted to film festivals and is directed by the talented, CHRIS ESKA.
Greetings to all of my beautiful friends out there!
News alert! I’m starring in a musical out here in Los Angeles called “ADDING MACHINE.” It opens on Saturday, January 22nd at the ODYSSEY THEATRE. I play the role of DAISY, who is hopeless romantic. It’s a great part with some great songs.
The Adding Machine is a 1923 play by Elmer Rice, and is generally considered to be the first American Expressionist play. The story focuses on Mr. Zero, an accountant at a large, faceless company. After 25 years at his job, he discovers that he will be replaced by an adding machine. In anger and pain, he snaps and kills his boss. He is then tried for murder and is found guilty. He is then hanged and wakes up in a heaven-like setting known as “The Elysian Fields.” Mr. Zero then begins to operate an adding machine, until Lieutenant Charles, the boss of the Elysian Fields, comes to tell Zero that he is a waste of space and his soul is going to be sent back to the earth to be reused.
In 2007, the play was adapted into a musical entitled Adding Machine with a score by Joshua Schmidt and book by Jason Loewith and Schmidt. The musical debuted in Illinois at the Next Theatre Company in 2007.
We run until the end of March, so if you’re in the Los Angeles area, come check me out.
Last Monday, January 17, 2011 I had the pleasure of attending the Los Angeles Ovation Awards. In Los Angeles there is a great organization called The LA Stage Alliance. This organization acknowledges the theatre community with an annual awards ceremony. Many shows keep their fingers crossed in hopes of being nominated.
As you may remember, last year I starred in a wonderful production: “The Women Of Brewster Place.” For my role as Lorraine, I won the StageSceneLA award for “Best Featured Actress In A Musical.”
Later we found out the entire cast and the show was nominated for 4 Ovation Awards!!!
Anyhoo…we went to the ceremony and I felt like a superstar! We walked away with 1 of the 4 awards were nominated for: “Best Production Of A Musical – Intimate Theatre.” What a thrill.

Stay tuned for information about my new show...
Peace,
Christine Horn
