Maksim Recht

I have Jewish and Icelandic cultural heritage which makes me a Jewish Viking. I love to read [my current favorite book is Slaughterhouse-Five] and enjoy literacy, numeracy, and performing arts at school. All I have wanted to do is act since I was little, and I have dreams to someday be in Hamilton and a Wes Anderson film. Here I am a year ago doing Hamilton songs on a road trip - LINK I also just completed a run as the lead in Diary of a Wimpy Kid the Musical where I was on stage 99% of the time for 2.5 hours, with over 40 monologues and 18 songs. It was intense. And I loved it. Other than acting, I like to play Soccer and Volleyball and have unique and strange hobbies such as painting 3D models and walking around tables in circles (I find it meditative). I also am extremely passionate about Iceland, as it is my home country and where I was born. I am a do-er! I enjoy making and creating and am constantly animating, writing or drawing.
