BIO BABY BIO BONNE'S BIO
Brynn Bonne (she/her) is a multidisciplinary performer from Toronto, ON committed to audience accessibility and joy in each project she is lucky enough to be a part of. Having grown up in the city, she has spent her life independently booking auditions everywhere she could find, which may or may not have led to her accidentally booking an Annie audition in New Zealand at age 10. Through her dedication, she had the opportunity to perform in a number of professional opportunities before graduating from Etobicoke School of the Arts high school’s musical theatre program, including the role of Leanne/Others in the Canadian premiere of Puffs at the Lower Ossington Theatre (dir SEANNA KENNEDY), Eponine in Les Misérables: In Concert with the Mississauga Symphony Orchestra, and Nine with Podium Concert Productions. However, after her acceptance to the University of Toronto/Sheridan College joint program for theatre, not musical theatre,she felt stuck not having an outlet that matched the path originally planned. But without UofT, Brynn never would have figured out who she was when confronted with “plan B”.
​
It was there she expanded her repertoire further having done a breadth of different work such as Dorine in Tartuffe (dir. PAOLO SANTALUCIA), Magenta in The Rocky Horror Show (Hart House Theatre Drama Coalition award for Best Supporting Performance), CB’s Sister in Dog Sees God (dir. ANTHONY PALERMO) Girl/Time/A in Everybody (dir. LEAH SIMONE BOWEN), The Friend in Gulp (Toronto Fringe, dir. WILLIAM DAO) and Medea in the new musical Mythic Women (Hart House Theatre Drama Coalition award for Best Leading Performance in a Musical). She also has appeared on screen in projects such as "Virgins!" (CBC Gem), "The Shape of a Girl" (UofT, dir. SABRINA WEINSTEIN), "Sadie’s Last Day on Earth" (BrancSeater Productions) and "Overcompensating" (Amazon Prime- Upcoming). She also wrote and performed her solo show Jackes and Jill’s in the 2023 Toronto Fringe (dir. LIAM PETER DONOVAN), a piece that grew from her third year solo project at UTM/Sheridan to the Hart House Drama Festival 2023 where it was awarded the Donald Sutherland Award for Best Performance. Aside from performing, Brynn has also been an Artistic Director (SMC Troubadours & her own sketch comedy company Quirky Cabaret), a writer (SMC Funnies, Jackes and Jill’s), a three- time Vice President of the U of T Drama Coalition, a tour guide with Toronto’s Illusionarium (dir. RICHARD OUZOUNIAN), and an ensemble member in the Second City Toronto’s Conservatory Grad Revue & Coached Ensemebles programs, continuing through 2024. Brynn is currently playing the role of Olivia Polk in The Perfect Bite: A Knives Out Glass Onion Experience with Secret City/Netflix (dir. MITCHELL CUSHMAN) until the end of November 2024.
​
Brynn’s greatest desire in performing is to create art that allows everyone to find space in it, and celebrates everyone’s level of exposure with the art form she loves so dearly. She values every one of her friends and family that have helped her grow this passion into the beginning of what she hopes is a great career, and strives to use that passion and support to be a performer in the city that radiates the same energy she was so lucky to receive.
