About Mandy
Mandy Bruno began acting at the age of 6, a shy girl, who hid behind her mother's legs, and got involved in an acting class, in hopes it would encourage her to "come out of her shell a bit." What that first class led to was a professional life in the arts, garnering a Emmy Nomination during her seven years playing Marina Cooper on the soap opera Guiding Light, starring on Broadway as Eponine in Les Miserables and Louise in Gypsy, shows off broadway, and working in regional theaters across the country, earning a Carbonell Nomination for her role of Marian in The Music Man. Other TV and film credits include Blue Bloods, Friends and Romans, Perhaps Tomorrow (Edgemar Film Festival Award Nomination for best Supporting Actress), and Price for Freedom. She can be seen on the Web Series Best Sellers, and All’s Faire. She has written and produced several independent films, earning a Northeast Film Festival Win for Best Film and Best Writing for the film Rock Story.
In addition to her on stage and on camera work, she has worked as a voice over artist for countless TV and radio commercials as well as served as a voice over artist for Sesame Street, and several ESL companies. Throughout this whole journey, Mandy has always continued her own personal love, teaching.
“I'm lucky, because through teaching, I get to live my passion. I love working with kids. I love their unbridled inspiration. And I love the results. There's no better feeling than watching one of your students open up and play.”
Creative lesson plans and boundless energy are her hallmarks. She had the privilege of launching an entirely new curriculum at Swift Elementary School in inner city Chicago. “It was certainly a challenge, but in one semester, I launched an after school acting program for 5th-8th graders, where we delved into the world of improvisation, introduced basic acting terms, created new characters, and even wrote and performed our own adaptation of Maniac McGee, presenting it for a weekend of performances for family and friends.”
Following her time there, she was courted by several other schools to start programs, but ultimately decided to take an amazing opportunity to finish her BFA in Musical Theater with a minor in Dance at Otterbein University.
While in college, Mandy continued to teach summer camps with The Young People's Theater Project in Portland, Oregon, working with Kindergarten-12th graders.
Mandy has served as a director and teacher for 5 theater companies across the US, including Artistic Director for The Foundry Theater Company. She has been a guest instructor for some of New York's top casting agents for their TV/Film seminars and now runs her own Acting Studio virtually. She has continued to teach one on one sessions, coaching children of all ages for their theater and film auditions.
“To watch someone of any age, much like I was, blossom from shy and introverted, to confident and expressive, is the ultimate fulfillment.”
