GETTING TO KNOW LU

Lu Zielinski is a Jersey girl, who always dreamed of moving across the "pond" to New York City. Lu attended Marymount Manhattan College where she graduated Magna Cum Laude (that's right, she's pretty smart) with a B.A. in Theater Performance with a Musical Theater Minor. Since graduation, Lu has been fortunate to have traveled around the world performing and is currently planning her wedding. When Lu isn't performing, she hosts murder mysteries and trivia events, as well as, leads tours of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. It is her dream to have a Crayola crayon named after her (in a shade of a mint/sea foam green), be a guest star on NPR's "Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me!" and to make someone laugh everyday.

About Me: Bio

On Into the Woods

"(Milky White) is acted and puppeted simultaneously by Lu Zielinski. It's an immediately winning performance and design for this surprisingly large role, and it's telling that the standing ovation started on Zielinski's (and the puppet's) bow.- Greg Kerestan

On Ken Ludwig's Baskerville

There are no 'stars' in this production, for it is an ensemble in the truest sense of the word, but… Zielinski’s myriad of wildly creative characters deserves a shout-out. It left me breathless with laughter, gasping for air as she careened across the stage with insane abandon, swiftly exchanging wigs and gowns, pants and hats, accents and shoes while winking at the audience as her fellow cast mates kept up with equally astounding verve and wow-factor talent." - Jonathan Charles Fox

On Young Frankenstein

 “Lu Zielinski (Elizabeth Benning), who also shines brightly, commanding the stage and her moments in the spotlight with great comic timing, Carol Burnett looks, style and a big Broadway voice”- Joe DiBello

On That Golden Girls Show

"Lu Zielinski's vocal and emotional voice and puppetry for Blanche was a splendid characterization of the sex-crazed Blanche, and led the pitch to hilarity in some integral scenes of the show. " - Sonja Niles
