Xel Simone

Xel Simone serves as Assistant to the Executive Director of ActUp Theater. They are a creative intersectionalist and writer grateful for their work as an embodied storyteller. ActUp Theatre has since encouraged Simone to grow as a community member and teacher, and creates opportunities for them to foster the growth of other young creatives - one of Simone's major life goals. Simone is grateful to be a part of the ActUp family and create art for the Greater Hartford Area Community to enjoy. Their (current!) favorite play is How I Learned What I Learned by August Wilson.
