ACTOR
LAURA BERNAS
THEATER MAKER
Welcome! I'm Laura Bernas.
I'm a creative goofball with a penchant for magically realistic plays, devised theater, and fearless acting. I love new plays, reimagined classics, and dynamic screen dramedies. I'm a huge nerd with an eye for sophisticated elegance. Think Beanie Feldstein meets Kate Winslet...I am that love child.
I hold an MFA in Acting from the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School in England and have trained at the Moscow Art Theatre School and Sarah Lawrence College.
Working across multiple mediums while collaborating with international companies forms the cornerstone of my career.
See me as Oberon, king of the Fairies, driven mad by jealousy of his queen, Titania, and devising a fitting punishment for her alleged infidelities. Mortals and fairies are swept up in the chaotic web spun by Mercutio, a mischievous puck who lives for nothing but a bit of sport at the expense of the unwitting.
See me in Agnes Borinsky's regional premiere of The Trees intimately exploring the ways in which a community is defined by the people who comprise it.
