Rachel Colleen Robins is a New York City-based actor, singer, and teaching artist with 20 years of performance experience. She holds a BFA in Theatre Performance with a concentration in Musical Theatre from The University of Texas at El Paso. Her credits include Diana in Next to Normal, Spider in Jekyll & Hyde, Mother in The Pillowman, Sister Mary Patrick in Sister Act, and Rona Lisa Perretti in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, among others. An operatic soprano with a rich lower register, Rachel brings both coloratura agility and deep, resonant alto tones to her work. She has continued her professional training with Actor Therapy's Lindsay Mendez and Ryan Scott Oliver since 2019.

Alongside her performance career, Rachel has spent more than a decade working with elementary-aged children and has three years of experience teaching in a formal school setting. She has also coached and directed adult performers, including productions of Tick, Tick... BOOM! and Godspell. As a teaching artist, she believes theatre should be rooted in strong technique, curiosity, creativity, and play. Her approach encourages young performers to develop healthy artistic habits while taking bold risks, making specific choices, and embracing the freedom to be a little weird.
