About Netanel Bellaishe

Netanel’s journey has taken him from the desert sands of his birthplace, Beersheba, Israel, to the bright lights of Broadway shows.
He began his career as a soloist in Israeli ballet companies, while also appearing in Israeli productions of American musicals. 
His big breakthrough came in 2008, when he won “Born to Dance”, the Israeli equivalent of the American TV program “So You Think You Can Dance”. 
Netanel came to the U.S. and graduated from New York’s prestigious American Musical and Dramatic Academy, then joined the national tour of “A Chorus Line” as the company’s dance captain, while playing the role of “Larry”.
Netanel went on to win a “Best Theatre Performance (male)” award for playing the title role of his lifelong idol, Gene Kelly, in “What A Glorious Feeling” in Ashland, Oregon. It was, by then, clear that his brilliant dancing was matched by an extraordinary singing talent.
He later joined the cast of “The Music Man”, playing Tommy Djilas, in a Vero Beach, Florida production.  
Netanel recently won praise for his portrayal of “Mike” in the Maine State Theatre production of “A Chorus Line”, with one reviewer saying he performs with “effortless perfection”. He later played Fred Casely in an Indianapolis production of “Chicago”, prompting one reviewer to write that Netanel “seems to defy gravity as he leaps into the story, quickly capturing both Roxie’s heart and the attention of the audience”. 
​
Netanel was nominated for a "Wilde Award" as Best Actor in a Musical for his performance in the Bob Fosse review show - Steam Heat, MI,
and was recently performing with American Dance Machine in NY.
