Beau Cassidy is proof positive that genetics is a major factor in generational talent. He comes from from a long lineage of unbelievably successful musicians, performers, songwriters and actors. His father, David Cassidy, was the #1 Pop Icon of the 70's starring as Keith Partridge on "The Partridge Family". His uncle, Shaun Cassidy, was another teen star of the 70's hit show "The Hardy Boys". His grandfather, Jack Cassidy, was a world-renowned Tony Award winning actor and performer. His step grandmother, Shirley Jones is an Academy Award winning singer/actress. And even more close to home, his sister, Katie Cassidy is starring as Laurel Lance on the hit CW series, "Arrow".
Growing up, it was immediately clear that Beau had caught the performance bug himself. Born in Los Angeles and raised in Fort Lauderdale, FL, he attended high school at the University School of NSU, starring in both musicals and plays including "The Wedding Singer", "The Music Man", "Copacabana", and "Pride and Prejudice". At the young age of 16, he was cast as Mickey Johnston in Stagedoor Manor's summer production of Blood Brothers, starring as the same role his father did on Broadway 15 years before.
This performance path eventually lead Beau to attend the Boston University School of Theatre, where he spent 2 years starring in "A Hatful of Rain" and David Auburn's Pulitzer Prize winning play "Proof" amongst others.
His recent film credits include starring as Freddy in the Netflix Original horror flick "Mama Claus: Deck the Halls with Guts" and also starring as Jack Wright in the indie short film Meeting Mr. Wright.
