ALEXANDRA VARRIANO

I’m a Chicago-based actor, writer, director, and dialect coach who’s been collaborating across performance mediums in various capacities for the past 15 years. In that span of time I’ve tapped into an undying passion for the rights of women, children, and the working class which guides my relationship to art and life. I’m seeking full-bodied and full-voiced expression, and am drawn toward experiences that involve immersion in the elements.

My vision is to bring women’s suppressed and untold stories to the surface of cultural consciousness, with the ultimate goal of changing perceptions of our experience and helping the next generations form new narratives. I am firmly committed to leaving a legacy of work that I can be proud of and that elevates and honors the role of women in society.

I hold a BFA in Theater Original Works from Cornish College of the Arts, and am on track to graduate with my MFA in Acting from The Theatre School at DePaul University in June 2026.
