Amanda DePinto is a Chicago based actor and collaborator with a BFA in Acting from The Sargent Conservatory of Theatre Arts at Webster University. She has studied acting in a variety of styles and mediums, both contemporary and classical, on stage and on camera. She was first drawn to theatre through reading the works of Shakespeare, and those continue to have a special place in her heart. 

 

Amanda believes storytelling has the power to unify and open minds through empathy. Theatre challenges audiences to realize that despite our differences, there is always shared experience and shared humanity. 

 

Amanda has always felt empowered by work that centers the strength and resilience of women and allows them to explore femininity outside of patriarchal expectation. It brings her a lot of joy to collaborate on projects where women are given the space to make their unique stories and voices heard. Feminism and advocacy are central to Amanda’s ongoing work.
