Dana Mazzenga is a passionate, playful, M.F.A.'d actor based in New York City. From tragic southern belles to proper ladies and loud, big-hearted blue-collar heroines, Dana most enjoys roles full of drama, love and, wherever possible, laughter.
These past pandemic-y months, she's had the privilege of participating in readings for LAByrinth Theatre Company and the Actor's Studio. Past NY Theatre work has included shows produced by Wizard Oil, Wide-Eyed and End Times Productions, as well as FringeNYC and Spare Change at InterArt, among others. Over the years, she has been delighted to work under the direction of Sherri Eden Barber, Johanna McKeon and Robert Lupone. Dana has also done commercials for the likes of Rubbermaid, Golden Corral and Google.
Dana received her M.F.A. from The School of Drama at The New School and can be spotted exercising her acting muscles in Lyle Kessler’s Masterclass (zoom style) every Tuesday night. Thursday afternoons belong to Austin Chick’s Craft Lab where she practices her screenwriting technique and is in the process of creating a tele-series.
On a more personal note, Dana loves - most of all - annoying her children with all of her dialects and funny voices, safe within the confines of their cozy Brooklyn apartment. If there's one thing she can be grateful for during a pandemic, it's the opportunity she's had to rediscover a creative career all while still making dinner and bedtime each night.
