victoria mcfarland

Performing Professional: Actor, Singer

Since I was young I have always been fascinated with the stage. I adore going to plays, and musicals whether in San Diego or NYC. While living outside Lake Tahoe in the early 2000s I found a local theater and performed as the lead in quite a few productions. Relocating back to San Diego in 2011 to reconnect with the high school love (now my husband) I have attended workshops and various classes to learn more about the art of performing. In 2018 after an audition at Cygnet for All City Auditions I was given the opportunity to become a standardized patient with UCSD medical school. I went on to do the same at USD and Univ of St Augustine. I am interested in getting involved with commercial work in the San Diego/LA area.
