Katie McGuinness: The Troupe Member

Katie McGuinness is an actor who has been steadily working for over a decade. She never stopped or got sidetracked, no matter what. She is dedicated to the craft of performing, but she’s also dedicated to living in a world of real ensemble playing. She creates her life as a troupe member with her friends and longtime actor boyfriend, forever being creative together, bouncing ideas off each other and helping one another venture into new artistic angles so they’re often making their own fresh opportunities and not waiting for outside sources to give them permission to try something. They’re planning to build an artist’s colony. Katie has done tiny pub productions, big theater productions, immersive theater with Punchdrunk Theater Company, film and television. She’s currently on fire. She finished filming Season 1 of “Snowpiercer” which will air on TNT in the spring of 2020. She’s here in LA now filming 1 episode of Ryan Murphy’s upcoming Netflix series “Hollywood” playing legend Vivien Leigh, no less. Her work and way of life are so inspiring.
