BIO

WENDELL LAURENT is the writer, co-producer and lead actor in the multi-award winning short DAYBREAK, a spy-thriller that pays homage to classic screwball comedies but with a contemporary twist.

Wendell has been active in the New York theatre scene since 1990, having produced four Off-Off-Broad-way shows as the Producing Director of RECKLESS THEATRE COMPANY. In the last five years, he has acted in over 20 film and TV productions, including a starring role in the upcoming indie feature AN EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR. In 2019, Wendell returned to the stage in the NEW CIRCLE THEATRE COMPANY’S production of Simon Fill’s new play BURNING CITIES. His current project is co-writing the screenplay HAVANA COWBOY with Benjamin T. Orifici. (imdb.me/wendelllaurent).

Like many a native of New Orleans, one of my favorite sayings is "Laissez les bons temps rouler!" (“Let the good times roll!”). But far from being a hedonistic cry to “eat, drink and be merry,” for me the saying is a call to live life to the fullest! This motto continues to inspire my creative life in New York, whether acting or producing for stage or screen, doing graphic design for MAGIS MEDIA or singing with THE IGNATIAN SCHOLA.

Thanks again for checking out my website. I look forward to working with you! ---Wendell Laurent
