Rita Funes Actress
I'm an Italian actress, always passionate about cinema and theater, but it was in 2015 that I began my professional acting training, starting at the THEATER ACADEMY of FLORENCE for four years, then at Studio Cinema in Rome for two years.
I graduated in bilingual acting (Italian and English) at Patrizia De Santis HT Studio in the CHUBBUCK technique, followed by courses with Marta GERVASUTTI, Armando DI LILLO, and PRACTICAL AESTETHICS.
I keep myself training by attending advanced courses with coaches such as Francesca della Ragione and BeTalent teachers, and then, when the opportunity arises, also with directors and casting directors during workshops.
I starred in Cosimo Bosco's film "Fin qui tutto bene?" (So Far So Good?), which was released in theaters in October 2025 and has participated in numerous international film festivals and now is available on Prime Video. I have another film in post-production, and I've participated in many short films. and TV series.
In March 2026, I'll be at the Teatro degli Audaci (Rome) with a text from Nicolaj's repertoire, revised by Marta Gervasutti.
I'm a curious, active person. I love sports, which I've also done competitively, swimming. I played piano for 10 years, and danced and sang for over 5 years. And now Federica Forlino is my vocal coach,
I love working in English with international crews, and I'd also like to act in Spanish.
