Keith R. Beck grew up in Smithfield RI, and is now based in both RI and NYC. Keith's dreams of being an actor began at age 11, and when he was cast as Dick Wilkins in a production of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol at the Stadium Theatre Conservatory in Woonsocket, RI at age 13. From there, he was hooked! He went on to be cast in more productions at the Stadium Theatre including Annie Jr., Tarzan the Musical, and The Wizard of Oz.
At the age of 15, Keith began his transition to acting on screen with two student films for Boston University, one of which was awarded 2nd place and 3rd place in the 2020 Boston and Los Angeles Redstone Film Festivals, respectively. He recently has worked on Showtime’s Dexter: New Blood, an episode of Fox Nations’ American Dynasty as Henry Ford II, and Tranquility: Ghost Stories (Amazon Prime and Tubi). Keith has also written and directed his own short film When Natasha Left, which can be found on IMDB.
To help him in his craft, Keith has taken various acting classes with Boston Casting Inc. and Tony Award- Winning Trinity Repertory Company in Providence, RI training in scene study, audition techniques, diction and dialect, and advanced improvisation. He has also received coaching from actor Steve Blackwood (Days of Our Lives) through his masterclasses that specialize in scene-work for drama and comedy. Keith is currently in his final year to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Acting for Film, Television, Voiceover, and Commercial at Pace University.
Keith’s goal as an actor is to tell stories that can inspire and make people feel understood, much like how films Stand By Me, Rocky, and Unbroken have impacted him. Outside of acting, Keith enjoys running, weightlifting, martial arts, guitar, and singing.
