GABRIEL ARGATE
Actor — Singer — Producer
Hi! Nice to meet you!
My name is Gabe - I am a proud Filipino performer based in the New Jersey/NYC area. Welcome to my humble abode (this website, of course).
Aside from being a passion, I view performing as an opportunity to represent the vibrant communities I am a part of: Asian American, plus-sized, and LGBTQ+. You can say I’m a triple threat.
As powerful as claiming these identities is, there is more to me than being a combination of marginalized groups. On an individual level, I have been described as warm, quick-witted, authentic, and bold. These attributes are a part of the identity I want people to also see - a meaningful one that surpasses the superficiality of appearance and celebrates the value of character.
“What’s new with little ol’ me?”
UPCOMING
NOVEMBER 2025
Heading up north to Franklin, MA to play Mrs. Bumbrake and others in Franklin Performing Arts Center’s production of Peter and the Starcatcher! I am very excited to dive into this Tony Award-winning play - my first play since college! As someone who loves portraying eccentric characters, bringing Mrs. Bumbrake to life will certainly not disappoint. Let the imagining begin!
RECENT
OCTOBER 2025
In celebration of Filipino American Heritage Month, I recently produced and sang in “Filipinos on Broadway” at 54 Below! Representation matters, which is why I wanted to create a show that gives the spotlight to a community I am truly proud to be a part of. The concert featured an all-Filipino cast of Broadway performers and up-and-coming artists; it was an unforgettable night of beloved music and remarkable talent!
MAY 2025
This past spring, I was given the opportunity to be a part of Healing Voices: Caregiver Stories on Stage presented at McCarter Theatre. Every year, McCarter receives hundreds of stories, poems, and other personal writings about caregiving, and selected pieces are performed in a special reading by professional actors. I was so honored to bring to life some of the most moving pieces regarding the caregiver experience.
