About Me

Olivia Dennehy-Basile

I graduated with honors from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, where I studied in the Meisner Studio, The Classical Studio, and the Stonestreet Conservatory for Film and Television. I earned a Tisch Award for my time in the Stonestreet Studio. 

My work was most recently seen at the WP Theatre, the nation’s oldest and largest theater company dedicated to developing, producing and promoting the work of Women+. Sea Glass: A Modern Cain and Abel, was produced by Bitter Maiden Productions in August of 2025 for a two week Off-Broadway run.

Additionally, I've written for educational children's TV (Beanstalk.Co), edited podcasts (Reverting; Strahd Walks; The LightShed Podcast).

In 2023, I joined the Resident Acting Company of Hamlet Isn't Dead, a Shakespeare acting company based in NYC. With Hamlet Isn't Dead, I've worked in several Shakespeare productions, most recently as Pericles in Pericles. 

​

I work and live in New York City as a writer, actor, director, Game Master (DnD 5e; Call of Cthulhu; Kids on Bikes/Brooms; Tales from the Loop). Currently seeking representation. Get in touch here!
