Age: 24

Hometown: Newtown, MA

Current Role: Vona plays Paramour's Joey, a gifted composer offered a rags-to-riches deal if he can create a musical masterpiece for A.J.'s (Jeremy Kushnier) latest Hollywood hit—and give up his muse and lady love, Indigo (Ruby Lewis), to the hotshot director.

Stage & Screen Cred: Vona made his Broadway debut in Once as Andrej. His regional credits include Little Shop of Horrors, The Valentine Trilogy and Rent. He appeared onscreen in the short film The Letterbox and is the musical director for the series The Fantastic Adventures of Foolish Gentlemen. He released his solo album Somebody in February.
