VOICE ARTIST
& RADIO HOST
Chris Reid is a voice artist and broadcaster and stage actor in Winnipeg, Canada.
Having started on stage at the age of 11, Chris has since been involved with countless stage shows, voiceover projects, video hosting projects, and as a personality on a variety of radio stations across Canada and the United States.
Since 2015, Chris has been an advocate, donor and theatre patron in Winnipeg. He has worked with community and professional theatre organizations to help with marketing (including videos, social media and graphic design) and advertising.
In 2017, his interest from being on stage ended so he could focus on promoting the variety of talent in Winnipeg by hosting a weekly radio program, In The Spotlight, on CJNU 93.7 FM. The show focuses on getting to know Winnipeg's theatre community. The show features interviews with Winnipeg's top talent. While the show ended on December 31, 2018, it was brought back on-air as the arts scene reemerged after a few waves of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Now co-hosted with Pamela Roz, the show features interviews from Winnipeg's arts scene weekly from 12:30p.m.- 1p.m. Central.
Most of the original show's run have been archived and are available to listen to here. If you'd like to request a copy or request and interview that isn't posted on the site, e-mail Chris here.
