DEAN
Cestari
actor | singer | dancer

Dean Cestari is a performer based in New York City. A Long Island native, he performed in his first musical at 8 years old (a very-age-appropriate, 8-13 year old production of Little Shop of Horrors) & has been hooked ever since. At 19, he moved to the city with one month of rent in his pocket & a dream. He's been fortunate enough to perform on Broadway, National Tours, Internationally & Regionally. However, he still believes his basement production of Seussical Jr. will always take the cake.
Aside from performing, Dean enjoys traveling, reading, photography, content creating, interior design, binge watching The Office or ANY crime docuseries, trying all of the hottest food spots, romanticizing Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream & spending time with the people that have held him up every step of his journey.



Dean had the immense privilege of originating the role of Anatole in the Chinese premiere of NATASHA, PIERRE & THE GREAT COMET OF 1812. Direction by Chloe Treat & Music Supervision by Or Matias.
