Tricia Paoluccio is a multi talented actor, unique visual artist, and creator. Growing up on an almond farm in Modesto, CA, with an inventor as a father and school teacher mother, Tricia moved to NYC and sold her art on the street before she could make a living as an actor. Since making her Broadway debut in Arthur Miller's play A View from the Bridge, she has worked consistently in NY theater on Broadway and off, in television and film. As a visual artist, Tricia has been commissioned to create botanical designs for luminaries in the fashion, publishing, and music industries. As a creator she has created and produced an optioned web-series, and, during the pandemic, co-wrote a show which she will star in the fall of 2022 where she gets to channel her lifelong idol: Dolly Parton. This show, entitled Here You Come Again, was approved by Dolly who has given Tricia permission to play her and given the creative team the world wide grand rights to all of her music. She divides her time between the California farm and NYC, where she lives with her two sons and husband, director Gabriel Barre. She is passionate about prison reform, having spent a dozen years serving as a volunteer chaplain at Manhattan Detention Center.
