Erin Sullivan is an American actress, singer, and dancer, most famous for her portrayal of "Amber Von Tussle" in the national tour of Hairspray, and for playing various roles in Shrek, and starring as Elle Woods in the 2012 adaption of Opera House Theater Company's Legally Blonde.

Sullivan started singing at the early age of 6, but didn't start taking lessons until she was 9. She performed her first professional theater show, How to Eat Like a Child at the age of 8. She moved into acting in New York City.

Sullivan has been a part of over 20 theater shows:

National/International

Regional/Stock

John Staton praised Sullivan's performance in Legally Blonde, stating that although she was the star of the show, she never "dominated" it and knew how to share the stage with the rest of the cast. He added "...[Sullivan] draws a believable arc to the confidence-boosting finale."

Will Holston of The University News (Saint Louis University) praised Sullivan's performance in Hairspray (musical) and went on to say, "Erin Sullivan and Ariel Tyler Page, as the scheming mother-daughter duo of Amber and Velma Von Tussle, are appropriately manipulative and entitled in their roles as [the] main antagonists to Tracy." Chip Deffaa of Cabaret Scenes concurred, writing "...Erin Sullivan [was] on target as bratty Amber Von Tussle."
