A bit about Jocelyn
Jocelyn is an actor, creator, and producer with a strong presence in New York’s downtown theater scene and a steadily expanding career in digital media. Her work — recognized by the Webby, Telly, Anthem, Honorary NYIT, Lortel & Drama Desk Awards, and more — disrupts the status quo with innovative contributions to New York’s stages and beyond. She has appeared in a broad spectrum of NYC productions and has created and produced a range of work that often blurs the lines between mediums and common frameworks, challenging conventions and helping to redefine performance landscape.
Jocelyn has originated roles in numerous premieres, collaborating with respected American theater artists like Caridad Svich, Mac Wellman, Robert O'Hara, Sheila Callaghan, among many others. Her stage work spans notable venues and companies including The Bushwick Starr, Clubbed Thumb, Dixon Place, The Flea Theater, New Dramatists, The New Group, The Public Theater, and a diverse array of others (incl. the now imploded 13P). Regionally, she has appeared at Arena Stage, The Kennedy Center, Olney Theatre Center, more.
Beyond the stage, Jocelyn’s career extends into television and film, and she maintains a growing footprint in audio fiction podcasts.
Recent acting credits include staged workshop presentations of Sara Farrington's Theater is Hard, A Simple Herstory (a project she created), Barrie Kreinik’s A Thousand Shapes, Martha Pichey’s I Am A Ship, and The Bad Infinity, which she also produced (recipient of two Telly Awards). Other recent work includes I Think You're Projecting (directed by Peabody Award-winner Jenny Turner Hall, and named Audible’s Best of the Year in 2023), and an appearance on The Blacklist.
As a creator and producer, Jocelyn has developed and presented the multi-platform podcast series A Simple Herstory at Vassar’s Powerhouse Theater, and has led collaborations with Scripps College, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the Merchant’s House Museum, The Muse Project, and The Tank.
She is a founding member of Woodshed Collective, and the founder of The Muse Project and Staging Film. Jocelyn is a member of SAG-AFTRA and AEA, and since 2025, serves as an Executive Member of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS).
