About Me.
Henry is a 24-year-old actor, dancer, singer, entertainer, fitness coach, choreographer, and part-time accountant from Cincinnati, OH. He has been performing since the age of 8 and hasn't stopped since. After graduating high school, he moved to New York City to train at The American Academy of Dramatic Arts (AADA) with a major in Acting and a focus on Musical Theatre. His final year at AADA consisted of being handpicked to be a part of The Academy Company, led by the wonderful Barbara Rubin. Since graduating in 2021, he has been working across the country in regional theaters as a performer and, on the side, choreographing shows for high schools and providing private coaching for aspiring artists looking to pursue performing as a career.
"I have to mention Henry Howland is a phenomenal ensemble member ... He was good when he was a kid; but he's now become a professional."
- Kirk Sheppard, The Sappy Critic
Previous & Upcoming Projects

The Match Game
Ensemble Theatre Cincinnati
My first Equity show! I opted out of taking my card this time as I'm just kicking off my career. This is the world premiere of The Match Game, written by Steven Stratford. Originating a character? Yes, please.
Summer '23
You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown / Othello / Rent
Scranton Shakespeare Festival
This summer was such a rush. It was truly my summer of Anthony Rapp, as I played roles he originated (Charlie Brown and Mark). I spent six weeks in Scranton, PA, performing in three shows that ran in a repertory style. It’s comical to play Charlie in the morning and Mark in the evening.
