BIOGRAPHY:
Elena Lozonschi is a Romanian-born actor and theater-maker based in New York City, drawn to work that asks urgent questions and lives in the tension between beauty and discomfort. She grew up surrounded by old tales, protest songs, and the echo of folk traditions where stories weren't just entertainment—they were lifelines. That early relationship to story shapes everything she does today. Whether playing a woman alone on stage unraveling a painful truth (Girls & Boys), speaking Romanian as Lyubov Andreyevna Ranevskaya in a multilingual Cherry Orchard, or crafting ensemble-driven physical theater, Elena seeks work that provokes, reveals, and moves. She recently appeared in Lists of Promise, a devised aerial-theater piece at Theater for the New City that traced women’s erasure and endurance through archival lists. Elena trained at the Stella Adler Professional Conservatory and co-founded Béton Brut Productions, a theater company focused on raw, experimental performance and reimagined classics. Her ongoing artistic mission: to create space for complexity, contradiction, and presence—onstage and off.
