About Nicolette.

Yellowbelly Photo Ltd.

Nicolette Mango is a New York based actress, originally from Long Island, NY. Growing up in an Italian household, she was constantly surrounded by family and friends, always celebrating with good food, music, laughter, and love at the forefront. This ingrained in her a deep love for people and art, and taught her to embrace life with passion. 

With this passion came curiosity, leading Nicolette to dive into the world of literature. This invitation for imagination and possibility developed her love for storytelling. Her love for stories found its way to film, and from then on she knew she needed to act.

She began her training with acting for the camera during high school, and then went on to pursue theatre training in college. She received her BFA in Acting at Boston University in 2023. During her studies at BU, she originated the role of Abigail Adams in Obie Award winner Kirsten Greenidge’s play Little Row Boat; Or, Conjecture, originally commissioned by Yale Repertory Theatre. In 2022, she studied Classical Acting at London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.

Since relocating to New York, Nicolette has continued her training across a range of techniques and disciplines, with a focus on Strasberg technique at The Acting Class, Inc., and most recently a semester of Advanced Scene Study through the Juilliard Extension Drama Division.

From stage to screen, she is drawn to raw, bold, and emotionally grounded stories that capture the range of the human condition. Deeply curious about human behavior and connection, she is especially interested in exploring what is universal to the human experience and what is unique to the individual.

When she’s not acting, she enjoys exploring new places, meeting new people, meditating, and having tea and chocolate with friends.
