About Greta Oglesby

Actor/singer Greta Oglesby made a big splash in the theater community when she played the lead in Tony Kushner’s Caroline, or Change at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis. Her performance was variously described as “ravishing,” “indelible,” “powerful,” “magnificent,” “heartbreaking,” “brilliant” and “the best performance on a Twin Cities stage this year.” Oglesby won the Ivey Award for that performance.

 
Oglesby’s résumé includes three seasons at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Crowns at the Guthrie, Gem of the Ocean at the Goodman Theater, and several plum roles at Penumbra, among others. In 2010, she sang “Lot’s Wife” from Caroline, or Change at New York’s Lincoln Center.
