Hi! I’m Cristina Gerla. I am a theatre producer and arts administrator with over 10 years combined professional working experience in theatre performance, producing, management, and administration. As a producer I’ve collaborated with theatre makers at St. Ann’s Warehouse, Fisher Center at Bard, Coeurage Ensemble, and Lenfest Center for the Arts at Columbia University. I have also served in administrative capacities at Theatre Development Fund and Santa Monica History Museum. Prior to my current work, I was a three-time Ovation nominated actor at regional theaters throughout Southern California including Center Theatre Group, La Jolla Playhouse, Pasadena Playhouse, South Coast Repertory, East West Players, Coeurage Ensemble, and PCPA Theaterfest.  I hold a B.A. in Theater from UCLA’s School of Theater, Film & Television and an M.F.A. in Theatre Management & Producing from Columbia University’s School of the Arts.

My wheelhouse is in bridging the administrative and logistical obligations of producing with an empathetic understanding of the unique needs of creative professionals across multiple arts disciplines.
