CRISTIAN BONILLA LAINEZ

Hey there! My name is Cristian and I’m from Northern Virginia.

While I am an actor, the main thing I love to do is to make others smile. That’s been my goal since I was a teen. I believe a smile has the power to transform others and make life seem less dreadful. I hope to do that on and off the stage for the rest of my life.

And with that, I love to meet new people and hear about their experiences. Life experiences that are vastly uncommon from mine. Experiences that should be turned into a book, movie, or play. One’s like my parent’s coming to the United States from El Salvador or like my best friend becoming closer to her faith. I want to give space and life to these stories that are not mine and allow others to cherish stories from people that are not like them.
