All Saints Hospital’s New Edition
Meet Andrea Verdura, an amazingly talented up and coming actress from New York city who just so happens to have a spot on the 2nd season of Showtime’s dark comedy “Nurse Jackie” starring Edie Falco, Eve Best, and Peter Facinelli. We had the pleasure of chatting with Andrea a bit. See below why she is one of awholelotofwhatever.com’s “Interesting People You Should Know.” A: I was born in Florida, moved to NY when I was 6 y/o – I like to think of myself as a New Yorker without the accent! I am in general a creative person – always have been. In addition to being an actor, I paint, I have worked as a fashion designer, makeup artist, and can do just about anything creative – as long as it’s not music…though I wish I could! A: I grew up LOVING movies – all kinds - old movies, contemporary, horror, comedy, “b” films, etc…everything!! Biggest Star Wars geek ever!! Q: What was your first job as an actor/extra? Q: Would you like to further pursue a career as an actor, or is this something you do as a hobby? A: After a career as a Fashion Designer, I ABSOLUTELY am in pursuit of a career as a working actor. Q: Can you tell us about how you landed a spot on “Nurse Jackie?” A: When I decided to fully pursue an acting career, I registered with some of the casting companies in NY, one of which being CENTRAL CASTING – they are the ones that do “Nurse Jackie”. I saw that they were looking to cast for a possible recurring role of an EMT and got I selected! Q: Had you seen the show before getting the part? Q:If so, what did you think about the first season? Q: Who was your favorite character? Q:Who were you most excited to see on set? Q: What was going on in the scene you were in? A: Well without giving away anything confidential for the upcoming season, I can tell you that there were some pivotal moments of interaction between “Eddie and Coop” and “Jackie and Dr. O’Hara”, and “Zoey and her EMT admirer”! We were filming exterior locations at Baruch College (which is the facade for “All Saints Hospital”). A: Nothing so much out of the ordinary, but all I can say is that this upcoming season of “Nurse Jackie” should be quit a wild ride for our friends at All Saints and their friends and family!!! Everyone needs to hang on for the premiere on March 22, 2010!!1 I know I can’t wait!!! Q: In terms of acting, who do you dream of working with someday? Q: What other films/television shows have you been on? A: Being around and a part of the industry I want to be in and having the opportunity to learn a great deal!!
