Bryan Eng – BIO
 
At just 22 years old, multifaceted actor and musician, Bryan Eng has already begun to make big strides across industries in the entertainment scene.  His unique talents have been featured on TV, in commercials, and at revered performance venues around the country such as the Kennedy Center, the Marriott Theatre, and Ford’s Theatre.

Growing up in Potomac, Maryland, Bryan began singing and playing the piano at the age of 5, developing his fluid classical technique.  His natural showmanship ultimately led him to the theatre with starring acting roles throughout high school.

Bryan continued his education studying Theatre at Northwestern University where once again, his proximity to a world-class entertainment capital would prove invaluable.  After his first year, he enrolled at Northwestern’s Bienen School of Music adding a second major in Music.  Composition, orchestrations and arranging came naturally to him, and after a year of study, he was hired to orchestrate the music for a multi-million dollar gala hosted by Stephen Colbert.  His seamless ability to create music for ensembles across genres has led to orchestrating for numerous Broadway performers as well as arranging for the the American Pops Orchestra and Transcendence Theatre Company. 

Shortly before turning 20 years old, Bryan’s talents as a performer earned him representation from one of Chicago’s finest talent agencies, Stewart Talent.  Within his first year on the Chicago scene, Bryan made his network television debut, commercial debut and Chicago theatre debut as an actor.  In that same year, he released his tour de force debut album, 20, featuring his talents as a singer, pianist, arranger, orchestrator, and producer, leading a 27-piece jazz orchestra.  This landmark debut year as a Chicago entertainer established him as one of his generation’s most promising young entertainers.

Bryan holds a Double-Major Bachelors Degree from Northwestern University’s Bienen School of Music and School of Communication, where he studied Acting , Jazz Piano, and Music Direction.  Additional acting training was completed at the world-famous Second City Chicago.
