Gianna Hoffman

Gianna was born and raised in Oklahoma City, spending her formative years in an elementary school/farm run out of a house and scooping horse shit each morning. She discovered her love for theatre after playing the pivotal and nuanced role of "the sky" in Aladdin Jr.

​

She graduated from Classen School of Advanced Studies in 2019, and during her free time could be found dragging her friends to one of the many house shows that the OKC-DIY-punk scene has to offer. She also spent time covering, staging, and performing classic rock albums with her friends and little brother, who is an incredible drummer and whom she loves very much.

​

Through these experiences, she found a new, more deeply rooted love of theatre and art, as well as a new understanding of the expansiveness of what theatre can be. She is now residing in Brooklyn, NY, where she has continued to make work she is proud of with people she loves.

 

She's very passionate about telling queer stories, and every career move she makes is actually just in the hopes of eventually meeting Natasha Lyonne. She also has a passion for writing, as well as all kinds of other weird little projects, which you can see below. She loves her cat, Mazzy, a lot, and is really annoying about it, which you can also see below. 

​

She graduated from The University of North Carolina School of the Arts in May of 2023 and is based in Brooklyn, New York. Most recently, she played Sam in the feature film CHOW TIME, directed by Cooper Shapiro.
