About Gilbert
Budding Cabaret Star. Famous Server at Little Owl in the West Village. Singer. Actor.
Born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but now exclusively in New York for over 10 years.
As a child, he loved singing. His parents would sit him by the choir at church so that he could belt his little curly head off. People would purposefully sit by him, and that was his first audience. A few years later, the movie Selena came out and changed his life. He would often perform Selena karaoke at parties and family functions. Christmas wasn't Christmas until Gilbert sang something from Selena. From there, he starred in middle school musicals and that’s when he caught the acting bug.
Theatre Major from the University of New Mexico where he graduated with honors in 2012.
Gilbert currently lives in Brooklyn, New York and has worked with many theatre companies including The John W. Engaman, Astoria Performing Arts Center, The Westchester Broadway Theatre, and NYMF.
Gilbert also has a cabaret residency at Good Judy and C’mon Everybody in Brooklyn. His cabaret character, Ms. Zilbert has built quite a following over the last couple of years. His original shows include: Cats: the Other Cats Musical, Me and My Good Judys at Good Judy, and The 4/20 Show.
