Allison Frasca
Allison Frasca grew up on Long Island before moving to New York to study at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. While there, she trained at the Atlantic Acting School and Stonestreet Screen Acting Conservatory and landed lead roles in each of their showcase productions. Allison won the Drama Award for “Outstanding Achievement” before graduating. After college, Allison’s stage experiences include the Off-Broadway productions Wicked Frozen, Gruff, and Beardo. She has been cast in lead and supporting roles in numerous theatrical productions such as The Brojan War, In Trump We Trust! The Musical, Wrong Number, God Did, The Scary Secrets of Stasis, PA, Ivanov, and Volcano Town. Allison has also performed in many readings and cabarets throughout New York.
In film, Allison starred with Christopher Lloyd in the award winning film ReRUN, (writ. Alyssa Rallo Bennett). For her role as “Mary” in this production, Allison was nominated for “Best Actress in a Feature Film” at the Northeast Film Festival. Other feature film roles include the part of “Natalie” in Toss It (writ. Michele Remsen). Toss It had its world premiere at the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival in LA. The movie Dean Darling (dir. Calogero Carucci) had its world premiere at the Stony Brook Film Festival. Allison has worked in short films, including the female lead in the animated work, L.I.P.S., which won multiple awards. Allison wrote and produced Which Witch is Which?, a comedy short (in the spirit of Abbott & Costello’s famous “Who's on First?” routine) set during the Salem Witch Trials. Which Witch was the winner of the Audience Choice Awards Comedy Film Festival. Allison also starred in two short films, Black Line, and A Room Without a View, that were entered into the official selection at the Cannes Short Film Corner and the Toronto Short Film Festival. Allison’s inimitable writing style comes from her love of classic, lush, full-scale musical productions and her notable comedic abilities. As seen in Which Witch, Allison enjoys blending riveting drama with witty absurdity. All Star: The Best Broadway Musical, her theatrical debut, is another captivating example. Its first public reading brought rave reviews. Allison is excited to continue developing her unique vision and voice as a writer of theatrical productions.
