Julia Jadwiga (she/her) is a proud “Jersey Girl,” whose acting debut was at three years old, when she forced her parents to reenact the story of “Little Red Riding Hood” every day for a five year run. Humans are so odd, complicated, and cruel—and what a joy it is to embody all different kinds of them! Her mission as an artist is to explore the truthful, unbridled human experience through language and performance— from devised theater pieces to coming-of-age indie films. She has a special place in her heart for new play development, especially queer stories. Her Rutgers theater credits include Manke in God of Vengeance, Leigh in At the Wedding, and Martius in Titus Andronicus. In addition to acting, Julia is a playwright, and minored in Creative Writing at Rutgers. She is super excited to be part of Rutgers theater department’s debut Student Works season, directing her play “hell is a middle school girl.” She dedicates everything she creates to all her fellow weird, off-putting girls.
