Kelli Rabke Agresta brings a tremendous amount of talent, expertise, and spirit to all of her work, both on and off of the stage. Raised in West Orange, NJ and now a resident in Bergen County, Kelli received her first "big break" on stage playing the role of Dorothy in Paper Mill Playhouse's acclaimed production of THE WIZARD OF OZ. Shortly thereafter, Andrew Lloyd Webber himself, to play the lead role of the Narrator in the Broadway revival of JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT, handpicked Kelli. Following that role, Kelli landed her dream role: Eponine in LES MISERABLES on Broadway. She went on to perform in regional theatres around the country - Goodspeed Opera House and Ford's Theatre to name a couple - in such roles as Mabel in MACK AND MABEL, Christine in PHANTOM, and then back to Paper Mill Playhouse in Stephen Schwartz's CHILDREN OF EDEN as Yonah. Kelli has been seen and heard in numerous TV commercials and voice-overs, and was the voice of several animated characters, including Kat in the Discovery Kids series KENNY THE SHARK. Kelli also played the recurring role of Bernadette on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS.
