Christine Johnson enjoys a varied career in singing, improv, and comedy. Her brother accompanied her on guitar for her first performances in high school, which eventually led to a master’s degree in vocal performance from Washington University and an interest in the music of the Baroque and Renaissance. She has performed and studied early music in Washington State, Cambridge, Oberlin, and of course St. Louis – where she appears regularly with the Kingsbury Ensemble and Collegium Vocale.
Christine also plays Faith in “the Limeybirds”, an award-winning singing comedy troupe from Toronto, Ontrario. She is a member of Project Improv-St. Louis and a soprano section leader at First Congregational Church in St. Louis. Past roles include Helena in The Mystery of Edwin Drood and Irene Molloy in Hello Dolly! with Overdue Theater Company, and Valetto in L'incoronazione di Poppea. Favorite projects include Commedia dell’arte and baroque opera with the Kingsbury Ensemble. This past summer Christine traveled to France to perform with this group. Look for her onstage or in concert in Chattanooga, Tennessee this summer and Cologne, Germany this fall!
I hope to see you at one of my performances!

Also come by and see me at The Fountain on Locust, where I am a cook. It's a wonderful upscale soda fountain in midtown with a full bar, the best ice cream in town, and burlesque shows the first Thursday of the month!
