LIMMUD FSU Recharge Presenters 2016

Marina Reydler was born in Moldova and raised in Brooklyn, NY from the young age of 6. Marina is an actor, director, theatre educator, and dreamer. Her interest in acting peaked at the very young age of 10, and appearing on TV was the biggest dream for a little girl! With much support from her family, Marina attended various acting institutions and soon graduated from The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, after which she was lucky enough to have worked on numerous films and theatre productions in NY, LA, Moscow, and Israel. In 2011, together with Anna Zicer, Marina founded the Lost & Found Project- a theatre company that creates original productions based on guided research into family history and personal stories. As of today, L&F has produced three very successful productions (Doroga, Covers, and Knock), with future projects on the way.

In the last few years, Marina began creating with teens similar work to the Lost & Found Project, titled Teen Drama Lab. Through her guidance and theatre techniques, the teens explore their own family history and personal experiences to compose original pieces for productions to be performed on a professional stage. Marina feels that theatre is the best platform for research and discovery. She finds the work with teens to be challenging but oh, so rewarding! She is very excited to continue her work and create more meaningful productions with talented young actors in the near future!
