Teaching Artists

Andréa Agosto

Andréa Agosto (She/They) is a performing arts educator and performer, and is excited to be a Teaching Artist at La Jolla Playhouse. Agosto attended UMKC where she studied film and theatre. For her graduate studies, she looked towards language, literacy, and sociocultural studies. She believes the marriage of her arts and sociocultural studies has informed how she views the arts, as well as how she discusses the two which is evident in the Intersectionality and Justice panels she facilitated for Diversionary. She aims to continue exploring these issues, and advocating for LGBTQ BIPOC artists.
