MEET OLIVIA
I have loved the theatre ever since I was a little kid playing dress up and pretend sword fighting with my brother in the woods. My passions led me to SUNY Purchase where I received my BFA in acting. After college I continued to study acting, voice, movement, and improv while living in New York and becoming an Equity actor. My interests in Shakespeare and voice work led me to the FSU Asolo Conservatory where I received my MFA in acting . I currently reside in Minneapolis where I am enjoying being part of the diverse and talented artistic community as well as teaching classes so that I can share my passion!
I am a founding member of New Place Players, a professional Equity theatre company, which performs full productions of Shakespeare as part of a feast of live music, gourmet food, and fine wine.
I'm also available as a private acting coach. As someone who has been through the difficult audition process to get in to SUNY Purchase for my BFA, and the FSU Asolo Conservatory for my MFA in acting, I feel confident that I can help anyone fine tune their audition skills.
