PAULA BERWANGER - Artistic Director and "Z"
Paula is thrilled to be working on the classics. She has recently done off-off Broadway productions of Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream as Hermia and Oscar Wilde's Importance of Being Earnest as Gwendolyn.
She decided to do a Shaw play because she thoroughly enjoyed working on three Shaw characters at the William Esper Studio, from where she graduated.
She also has a love for comedy and has worked in two comedic sitcoms in Brazil, "Odeio Segundas" and "Amore Verissimo," directed by Emmy-nominated director Arthur Fontes.
CAMERON ADDICOTT - Producer and "A"
Cameron is an Australian-British actor. The love for travel and the classics which he shares with his character "A" , made Shaw's imaginary world a delight for him to dive into. His US credits include Shakespeare on the Sounds Two Gentleman of Verona, and a reading of El Alma Joven at Rattlestick Theatre. In Australia Cameron has been part of numerous fringe festival productions including The Picture of Dorian Grey, Romeo & Julien and A little Night Music. Having recently graduated from the William Esper Studio 2 year program where he studied many Shaw pieces he is excited to help bring Village Wooing to life.
RENATA SOARES - Scene Director and "Stewardess"
Renata Soares is originally from Brazil where she worked extensively in theater and is thrilled to be starting her career now in NY. She recently graduated from the Two Year Acting Program from William Esper Acting Studio and holds a BFA in Performing Arts from Universidade de Brasilia.
Renata has worked as an acting teacher and coach in Brazil and her experience with musical theater brings a lovely musicality and rhythm to this production.
