Hey, didn’t see ya there!

My name is Nafia Chantel Hunter, Fia for short :) I am a Chicago-based artist. I fancy myself a singer, actor, dancer! 

I fell in love with theatre when I watched the 2007 blockbuster Hairspray! I then declared that I would one day play Tracy Turnblad! (I was in for a very rude awakening) I was born & raised on the East Coast, more specifically New Jersey and Maryland. I am a “lifer” alumna of The Bryn Mawr School for Girls where I graduated with an Arts Scholar. The role that lit the fire in me was the Leading Player in Pippin. It is such an amazing feeling to play a role that was done by one of your idols. I have ventured to the Windy City to pursue a BFA in Musical Theatre from the Chicago College of Performing Arts. 

 

When I’m not at the theatre you can most likely find me at home binging a TV show, writing, creating top-tier playlists, or at brunch :)
