Antoinette most recently performed her one-woman show, IN SPITE OF MYSELF, in Los Angeles for The Collective. This fall, she was seen at The Public Theatre in THE BOTTLE HOUSE, a new piece adapted from Sam Shepard's poetry and short stories as well as at Playwright's Horizons for a wildly successful reading of Michael Watson's new play, SAFE AND SOUND. This past summer she had a blast playing Adriana in Shakespeare On The Sound's COMEDY OF ERRORS.

In 2007, she also began "Storytime with Antoinette" - evenings in which she shares stories from her recent spiritual and physical travels over an eventful period in her life, beginning with unexpected surgery which leads her to decide to go to Ethiopia to work with HIV+ orphans then to Florence and back to NYC where she came home to unexpected visitors.

Most outrageously fun gigs: Debuting at Carnegie Hall as the Italian Narrator in a Puccini celebration, acting opposite Steve Buscemi in the recently released DELIRIOUS, being directed by the legendary Kathleen Turner in a reading of CRIMES OF THE HEART in Williamstown Theater Festival's reading series, performing a slew of characters in the critically-acclaimed STRING OF PEARLS at Primary Stages opposite Ellen McLaughlin, Mary Testa and Sharon Washington and playing opposite Michael Rispoli and Ralph Macchio in the much-loved MAGIC HANDS FREDDY.

Antoinette has worked extensively with Andre Gregory in an invitation-only Chekhov/Growtowski project, Philippe Gaulier, Christopher Bayes, Jim Calder and members of Theatre de Complicite on different styles of physical theatre. She received her MFA from NYU's Graduate Acting Program, has studied at the Moscow Art Theatre and is a recipient of a Fox Fellowship. She has taught improvisation, theatre games and various workshops at NYU's Grad Acting Program and The Actor's Center. Antoinette is a Drama League Directing Fellow.

She is a member of Actor's Equity, SAG and AFTRA.

Antoinette most recently co-taught and co-directed NYU undergraduate theatre majors in the basics of Commedia dell'Arte with Jim Calder at La Pietra (NYU) in Florence, Italy. Antoinette has been an adjunct Professor at NYU's Graduate Acting Program. At NYU Grad, she has taught Theatre Games and co-founded with James Calder, the advanced workshop, "Kinetics of Literature," which challenges actors to create theatre from great literature, movies and art without using anything more than their own bodies and voices. She co-founded NYU's Alumni Lab in which she and James Calder worked with NYU's Graduate Acting alumni, helping them to create and work on original material.

Antoinette has also taught various classes at J. Michael Miller's The Actor's Center where she was also a Teaching Fellow. Her independent Improvisation workshops include teaching at Chamber Music America's 2002 national conference, teaching master classes to high school students from across the country with Learning on Location and teaching senior citizens as a visiting artist at SAGE in Astoria, Queens. Antoinette's one-on-one coaching includes working with actors in the Broadway production of ENCHANTED APRIL on their use of the Italian language, and also with actors getting prepared to audition for graduate programs and professional employment.
