About Mel
Mel DeLancey is a personal trainer and cabaret singer best known for her autobiographical revue, Tinder Roulette, which played to sold-out houses and rave reviews in 2015 in Greenwich Village. After ending an eccentric and alcohol fueled marriage of 10 years at the age of 33, Mel threw herself into the New York on-line dating scene with ambitious fury. Her open-mindedness and appetite to connect with people took her on an epic number of “Tinder” dates (over 150 according to the New York Post) and while she hasn’t met her next husband yet she has collected new friends and hilarious anecdotes and learned a lot about the male species. As a result of her success with Tinder Roulette and her entertaining ability to overshare with flair, Mel will be hosting a monthly show in 2016: The Overshare Cabaret at 13th Street Repertory.
Mel has been living in Manhattan since 1997. She studied musical theater at New York University, where she earned her bachelors degree in music. For the last 15 years she has been performing on the smaller stages of downtown Manhattan and Williamsburg with many independent theater groups, most recently Dysfunctional Theatre and Gemini CollisionWorks. This summer as part of the Dysfunctional Theatre Arts Collective she hosted and headlined her original program I Heart Showtunes in Nolan Park, House 8B on Governor’s Island. Mel spent 5 years with the sketch comedy group Slightly Known People. The 5-member team was responsible for writing, directing, performing, and producing all of its own material. In addition to many “one off” shows and videos, the group hosted a sold-out weekly show at the popular alternative comedy venue, RiFiFi, in the East Village, which ran for 4 years.
When she isn’t on stage you can find Mel at the gym or working one on one in her clients’ homes. She is the founder of Joyful Fitness, a personal training company, and has a passion for making humans feel better in their bodies through movement.
