SECOND COMING OF
BRIDGET JONES

Aubrey is an Overly Sentimental NYC based Actor, Writer, and klutz.

Aubrey has been acting since she could speak. Story is a crucial part of her life, and is for her a way to give back to the world. She firmly believes that most of mankind’s ugliest qualities come from feeling unseen, unheard, and without community. In devoting her life to story, both creating and enacting, Aubrey hopes to make those around her feel as though they have a voice and a place to feel heard.

There is nothing like the magic of the theater. Whether a playhouse or a movie theater (long live the AMC A-List), Aubrey feels that, for those among us who do not seek solace in religion, it is a sacred place. For two hours, everyone is stuck in a room (crucially, with no phones!!) to experience one of the most natural human connectors: story. Besides hunting, gathering, and generally roaming, people have used story as vehicle to mourn, celebrate, learn, and be curious since the dawn of man. Aubrey believes that in seeing the world through the lens of someone else’s lived experience, we crack open parts of ourselves to be shared and explored. To practice the art of storytelling, especially in times like these, is a privilege: art is a celebration of life.

When she’s not writing, acting, or waxing poetic in third person, you can find her beefing up her Citibike stats, haunting The Strand, hanging with her kitten Saoirse, or scrolling Pinterest (play your cards right and she’ll make you a board).

A few quotes Aubrey loves:

“The artist prays by creating.”

Flannery O’Connor

“To be alive: not just the carcass. But the spark. That’s crudely put, but… If we’re not supposed to dance, why all this music?”

Gregory Orr

“During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis we buried our friends in the morning, we protested in the afternoon, and we danced all night, and it was the dance that kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for”

Dan Savage

"Darling, you can be whatever you want to be, so long as you're outrageous"

Phoebe Waller Bridge’s Mother
