ANA CRISTINA.

Hi, I'm Ana Cristina, an interdisciplinary artist. I wear many hats - performer, writer, director, musician, producer, grant writer, and teacher all find a place in my repertoire. With my theatrical work, I craft intimate and thought-provoking pieces that delve into themes of identity, trauma, and resilience. Critics have described my portfolio as “chilling", “crisp, and focused,” while audiences have found it “fascinating to watch.”

Currently, I’m pouring my creative energy into mastering the guitar with an eye toward a music release. Over the years, my artistic endeavors have earned recognition from esteemed institutions like the National Endowment for the Arts, Brooklyn Arts Council, and ART/NY. I am the Founding Co-Artistic Director of the 501c3 theatre company What Will the Neighbors Say, where I created engaging content and cultivated a community for six seasons.

Born in Florida, raised in Austin, but not quite from anywhere, I am a first-generation American. Both my parents hail from Caracas, Venezuela, making me, yes, you guessed it, Bilingual!

Studied Drama, Economics, and Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University. Interim Consultant at Benvenuti Arts, passionate about supporting artists globally secure funding.

Currently available for consulting engagements.
