Alexander G. Rubin (or Alex) was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, where his early passion for theater was ignited. His creative soul was evident from a young age, as he made stop-motion movies with Legos and organized plays with his fellow preschoolers. His official introduction to the world of theater came when his elementary school cast him as one of the brothers in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. This experience sparked a deep love for musical theater, and Alex was officially bitten by the acting bug, setting his path in stone.  

During his teenage years, Alex immersed himself in the vibrant Bay Area theater community, performing in various community and, eventually, regional theater productions. He performed with companies such as CMTSJ Marquee, City Lights Theatre Company, Palo Alto Players, and Hillbarn Theatre, appearing in shows like Ragtime (x2), The Producers (x2), Monty Python's Spamalot, and Young Frankenstein.

After completing high school, Alexander's passion for acting led him to the East Coast, where he spent a couple of years in the BFA Drama program at NYU Tisch School of the Arts and honed his skills at Playwrights Horizons Theatre School. An internship opportunity transformed into Alex's professional New York stage debut in the immersive theater experience Paradiso: The Path of Beatrice.

After taking a break from school, he moved to Chicago, where he quickly booked and completed his first contract, Annie at Citadel Theatre, just in time for COVID-19 to hit. Alex made the best of the lockdown, enrolling at Loyola University Chicago, where over the next few years, he went on to finish his BA in Theatre Arts (Cum Laude).

For many years, getting an MFA in Acting was on Alex's bucket list. So, after receiving his diploma, he said "Au revoir" to Chicago and "Hello" to Washington, DC, to attend graduate school at the Shakespeare Theatre Company Academy at George Washington University (formally known as the Academy for Classical Acting) as one of fourteen students in the unique one-year classical acting program. He had the good fortune to study under Academy director Alec Wild and a master faculty including Lisa Beley, Christopher Cherry, Dody DiSanto, Ed Gero, Robb Hunter, Emma Jaster, Lisae Jordan, Craig Wallace, and Leslie Jacobson, who, immediately after graduation, cast Alex in the NASSR's once-in-a-lifetime staged reading of Marino Faliero, Lord Byron's rarely produced work.

In addition to his training at the STCA and NYU, Alex completed the summer semester at LAMDA and graduated from iO Chicago's Musical Improv program. Alex is also a bit of an immersive theater nut and has been lucky enough to do many workshops with both NYC's Third Rail Projects and Punchdrunk (including being selected to train with Sleep No More Co-Director and Choreographer Maxine Doyle back at the company's London headquarters).
