Amanda Ribnick

  • She/Her
  • Biography

    Hi! I'm Amanda, call me Ribs! Born on Long Island, New York, I grew up listening to Idina Menzel, Sugarland, and Barry Manilow (which could explain my rarely-used nickname "Mandy"). When I moved to Florida before fifth grade, it was hard to find my place. Despite that, if moving completely shattered my over-dramatic 10-year-old heart (it did), my love for storytelling helped heal it back up!

    I'm passionate about all aspects of stage and screen performance. I've had the honor of developing and running multiple productions throughout my undergraduate experience, both theatrical (two original musicals [Book, Music, Lyrics]) and televised (Knight New Work Award-Winning Web-Series, "Underground" [Showrunner, Director of Creative Development]). I've also had the pleasure of recruiting and collaborating with an entirely female and TGNC cast, crew, and team on "Underground." If you need someone ready to take on any challenge with a twinkle in their eye (and a playlist for every occasion), I'm your girl!
