CHRIS SILVESTRI
actor, storyteller, boy from Indiana.
[insert slick bio here]
Like something out of a late aught's Disney Channel movie, Chris discovered his love of performing after leading a ragtag group of public school misfits to a mock trial national championship and, thusly, greatness.
In 2017, he decided to take his talents to New York to pursue his MFA at Juilliard. Those talents got poked, prodded and hit with a pandemic, but he surived and maybe even some of his talent did it too.
He just wrapped "The Electric State" directed by the Russo Brothers so acting is back to being fun again!
Juilliard Times!
Coronavirus has really stymied the whole "performing on stage thing" so here are a couple of choice moments from the Before Times, along with some photographic evidence that Zoom Theatre is a thing they will make you do in graduate school during a global pandemic.
