OFF-NIGHT REPERTORY (bios)



GIULIA BERNARDINI

An Italian-American hybrid, Giulia was first bitten by the acting bug when she landed the role of Toad in her fifth grade's production of "The Wind in the Willows". Delivering the line "I ought to be an actor", she had an uncanny sensation that there was more to those words than a nine year old in a frog outfit could imagine.
Almost twenty years later, she is going the professional route, having studied acting in Rome and in London. She has had roles in two independent films, "The Magic Vegetable" and "Domino" as well as several theater productions ranging from the classical (Julie in Strindberg's "Miss Julie") to the modern (Roberta in "Danny and the Deep Blue Sea"). Currently she is working on two upcoming Italian theater productions. Giulia owes her role in one of these productions to a certain New York waitress with an attitude problem, once heard saying, "Could be worse, I've been in a Cleveland all week..." When she grows up she'd like to play Martha in "Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf".
