So Long, Sis | Pixel Playhouse
It was so much fun to write some lyrics for Pixel Playhouse's ARCANE - The Musical! I've always loved the animation and art style used in Arcane so getting to work on a song for the iconic sister duo was a blast and a half. Check it out on YouTube!

All Shark No Bite | Devise and Conquer
Joining event organizers/hosts Danny Feldman and Lizzy Cenicola alongside the cohort of Devise and Conquer Edition 4 was a BLAST! Devise and Conquer is an event co-hosted by Danny Feldman and Lizzy Cenicola in which they invite a small selection of composers, playwrights, and performers to create and perform a musical in 6 hours. Our piece was "All Shark No Bite," which followed the story of Georgie, the son of Bruce, the shark from JAWS, who is on a mission to prove to humans that sharks are gentle, docile creatures. I wrote "Bust This Myth," for Georgie which was performed by the wonderful Kyle Dalsimer. Check it out below!

The Will to Survive (Short Film)
Portraying Abigail in this film was such a treat. This is the first time in a while I've played the protagonist and I was such a blast to be on set with a great cast and crew lead by Kristen Cignarella. I heard whispers of a Winter 2024 release so stay tuned!

I'm thrilled to be performing at the Mile Square Theatre in Hoboken on May 11th. This will be the first time I've sung in front of an audience since I graduated college (outside of auditions) and I can't wait to share some original music and sing a little "Wicked" with one of the legendary (and absolutely lovely) Glinda's herself, Katie Adams!.

Playbill's Songwriter Series Feature
"Centering on queer characters with an abstractly magical aesthetic, Ribnick's work often toes the line between comfortingly accessible and intriguingly layered." - MARGARET HALL
Never have I been so honored and excited to share news. I am Playbill's Featured Songwriter for March of 2024! It was incredible to be in Playbill's HQ sharing my original music and surrounded by so many of my friends.

Voice Over for Booking.com Super Bowl Commercial
Recording demos for Drew Gasparini ("The Karate Kid - The Musical," "Skittles Commercial: The Broadway Musical") was an INCREDIBLE first experience in the commercial voice over world. I recorded multiple versions of his original song, "Somewhere, Anywhere," and was hired by production company Zulu Kilo Alpha to complete additional voice over work for the same piece.

"Underground" Premieres
The Knight New Work Award-winning musical web series is finally out! Underground follows Phoebe, the perfect girl-next-door who finds herself in a less-than-perfect situation. Working with Jean, her steadfast lawyer, and Robin, Jean's snarky assistant, Phoebe recounts the night when her fiancee died only to realize - she can't remember any of it.
Underground is nothing short of the culmination of a group of friends theatrically stranded during a pandemic. I began writing it in March of 2020 and after hours (years) of work, it is finally available for all to enjoy. If you did CW shows and want more music in your life that sits right next to SIX, Wicked, and Waitress, you've found your next obsession. I hope. Check it out!

Original Musical "RUNT" Presented at University of Miami
A winter solstice, families bound by and without blood, and the grave of Elliott Cox. RUNT follows Cleo, the precocious fourth of five beloved siblings, and Thea, a peerless adopted daughter ready to meet her maker. Hardly the darlings of Anchorage, they search for purpose amidst grief, self-discovery, and the precarious families they call their own.
My last musical workshop at the University of Miami, RUNT, was nothing short of a celebration of my classmates and their talent.
I wrote the book, music, lyrics, orchestrations, and directed the piece through Theatre Action Group’s Stage Reading Series.

Fraulein Kost in "Cabaret"
“Amanda Ribnick’s… performance of “Tomorrow Belongs to Me (Reprise)” was spectacular. Fraulein Kost is not a main character, so the fact that Ribnick managed to make such a lasting impact in this role is a testament to her incredible vocal talent.”
Directed by Michael Jenkinson, I had the privilege of playing Fraulein Kost in Cabaret. It was a joy to perform in such a powerful show for my last University of Miami production.
