Maggie Anne Gillette is a New York and Connecticut-based actor. She is also a proud alumna of the Ithaca College BFA Acting program!
As a small-town native and classy country bumpkin of Woodbury, Connecticut,
Maggie was constantly surrounded by nature, farms, and loved taking naps with baby calves at local fairs.
Her earliest memories of the theatre were Broadway's A Year with Frog and Toad and Peter Pan with Cathy Rigby. After this, little Maggie pressed her parents to enroll her in dance classes. Due to these events, Maggie was thrust into community theatre and her school performances, propelling her to pursue acting and the performing arts as a career.
When Maggie is not performing, she enjoys watercolor painting, whipping up new baking creations, and fake sneezing and chicken clucking at random! She is also a hardcore Hufflepuff, Pisces, lover of cold weather, and can eat bags of Cheetos on end.

What's all the
Hubbub?

As Olivia in Twelfth Night, “Maggie Gillette is perfect as the elegant aristocrat who disdains the Count but increasingly throws herself at his courtier. Gillette's shifting demeanor is nicely nuanced, a reminder that comic action need not be overplayed to be effective."

REVIEWS
In her performance of Seussical the Musical, "Maggie Gillette shined as his pinning next-door neighbor, Gertrude McFuzz and was lovely in her lovesick and hopeful songs. Ms. Gillette's goofy, hipster sensibility (loved the Ukulele!) paired well with Mr. Newey's oblivious, but loving pachyderm."
- Joseph Harrison, Broadway World Connecticut
