Biography

  • Christopher Kardos is a New York-based Hungarian-American actor, musician, singer-songwriter, voice over artist and writer. The son of an opera singer mother and a writer/director/musician father, he grew up immersed in the theater world. Directors love working with his uncanny ability to embody intense, off-beat, weird and unhinged characters.

    Kardos has built a versatile career across film, theater, voice work and music. In film, he most recently played Charlie in the award-winning *What a Christmas Eve* (2024). On stage, he played all 7 male characters in the US premiere of *Liselotte in May* at the Theater for the New City, earning praise for his character versatility, physicality, comedic timing with one critic calling him "the ultimate character actor". He was most recently an original cast member as the ‘The Prince’ in the Off-Broadway World Premiere of the musical "Captain Filthy Fred" at the La MaMa Theatre in New York City.

    Kardos is known for his range as a character actor, his unique cultural and artistic perspective as a Hungarian-American artist, and his commitment to independent, creative and meaningful storytelling.
