About Reyna

‍ ‍Reyna St. James is a classically trained actor with an MFA in Acting from Rutgers Mason Gross School of the Arts and Shakespeare’s Globe (the classical literature nerd in her was thrilled). In addition to her acting, she is an accomplished Intimacy Coordinator and Fight Director in Theater, TV, and Film. 

As a biracial woman she is passionate about connecting with texts that illuminate the complex journey of identity; Stories with characters who are fighting to be fully themselves in worlds that may not accept them, and their own search for self-acceptance and community. 

  Her warm, melodic, and wry voice brings epic journeys and fierce, wild women off the page (growing up in Colorado riding horses jump started her obsession with fantastical places). Whether in a sweeping fantasy world or one very much like our own, she is passionate about diving into adventurous stories and portraying people searching for connection.

And like any well-done pastry, she loves layered relationships and emotionally complex stories like those in Fantasies, Literary Fiction, and Rom Com’s. She is an accent buff and loves to bring different voices into play in her work, grounded in Fitzmaurice and Linklater vocal techniques
