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. She has appeared in a wide range of NYC productions and has conceived and produced original, process-driven work that often blurs boundaries between mediums and traditional frameworks, challenging convention and expanding the vocabulary of performance. Her projects — recognized by the Webby, Telly, Anthem, Honorary NYIT, Lortel, and Drama Desk Awards, among others — reflect a sustained commitment to innovative, artist-led initiatives.
A frequent actor in new play development, Kuritsky has been closely involved in the life of plays from their earliest stages, participating in readings, workshops, and laboratory productions long before they premiere. She has worked alongside influential voices in American theater, including Caridad Svich, Mac Wellman, Robert O’Hara, and Sheila Callaghan, and has originated roles in numerous productions. She is a familiar presence across New York’s experimental theater ecosystem, with appearances at companies such as The Bushwick Starr, Clubbed Thumb, The Flea, New Georges, and the seminal 13P, among many others. Regionally, she has performed at Arena Stage, The Kennedy Center, and Olney Theatre Center.
Outside of 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 Vincent Katz's Hippolyta, Emily Maltby’s adaptation of Nicole Krauss’s The History of Love (prods. Douglas Denoff, David Luff), Sara Farrington’s Theater is Hard, A Simple Herstory (a project she created, written and developed by Jonathan A. Goldberg), and Barrie Kreinik’s A Thousand Shapes. Other recent work includes a workshop of Martha Pichey’s I Am A Ship, Audible's I Think You're Projecting (directed by Peabody Award-winner Jenny Turner Hall, Audible’s Best of the Year, 2023), The Bad Infinity, a short she also produced (recipient of two Telly Awards, including the inaugural Gold Telly for Experimental Film), and an appearance on NBC's 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).
