Welcome to the
official website of Robyn Berg—
professional
actor of the stage and screen, director, and
teacher.
Robyn has just
relocated back to New York City, after
finishing her Master of Fine Arts in Acting
from the University of Florida, where she
was on a full-tuition assistantship. While
in Florida, she was represented by
FCT-The Agency and
Louise's People Model & Talent Agency.
You can catch her performing at the UF
Showcase in New York City on May 5 at New
World Stages and in The Shakespeare Theatre
of New Jersey's production of
Amadeus
from May 31-June 22.
At UF, favorite
roles include Ranevskaya in Anton Chekhov's The Cherry Orchard (her thesis role), Mrs. Loveit in The Man of
Mode; or Sir Fopling Flutter (for which she was nominated for an Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship) Lampito in
Lysistrata (which toured Greece in
2006), and the Player Queen in
Hamlet. Robyn has also been fortunate
enough to work at The Hippodrome State
Theatre, playing the Mad Hatter in an
experimental production of Alice in
Wonderland, Mrs. Cratchit in the old
classic A Christmas Carol, and Helen in Night of the Living Dead. In
addition, she has filmed multiple
commercials, infomercials, films and
voiceovers in the Northern and Central
Florida areas.
Prior to
graduate school in Florida, Robyn lived and
worked in both New York City and
Chicago. Favorite roles in the big cities
include Olivia in Twelfth Night, Lady
Macduff/Witch 3 in Macbeth, Dr.
Livesey in an all-female, movement based
production of Treasure Island,
Nerissa in The Merchant of Venice,
and Cinderella in an original, musical
version of
Cinderella.
Robyn was also
blessed to work under the direction of
Steppenwolf Theatre Artistic Associate
Jessica Thebus, while performing at Estrogen
Fest and Peter Schumann at Bread & Puppet
Theatre in Vermont, performing in their
First World Insurrection Circus while on
tour with an entirely different show she
directed called Hamlite: Half the Length,
Half the Verse, Double the Laughs.
Before all of
this madness, Robyn earned a bachelor’s
degree in Theatre Performance and
Communications Radio/Television from Bradley
University in Peoria, IL, where she was on a
partial performance scholarship. Here, Robyn
received 3 Irene Ryan Acting Scholarship
Nominations for her portrayals of Hannah
Jarvis in Arcadia, Mistress Page in
The Merry Wives of Windsor and
Lorraine Sheldon in The Man Who Came to
Dinner. She was also an
active member of the Theatre Honor
Fraternity Alpha Psi Omega and studied in
London, England for an interim semester.
In short, Robyn
has performed, directed and taught all over
the world and all over the USA. She is
extremely passionate about all three of
these disciplines within the entertainment
industry. For more information, feel free
