March Actors of the Month!

Reid Prebenda is a Bicoastal actor, writer, and musician with a base layer of midwestern sensibility and charm, topped off with some Jersey loyalty, love and aggression. He studied Comparative Literature, but added a focus in Theater after being cast as the lead in a play directed by a bandmate during his time in Colorado Springs. He then moved back to NYC and studied primarily under Terry Knickerbocker when he taught at the William Esper Studio. He thrives off being around music, theater, and art.

He brings a sense of loyalty and depth to the worlds of privilege and charm he is often cast in. You can catch him in shows ranging from Katy Keene (The CW) to Pose (FX) or The Deuce (HBO). He just finished filming The Problem With Poets starring Deborah Messing and directed by Jacob Hoffman, as well as Evil Genius directed by Courteney Cox and starring Patricia Arquette and David Harbor.

Reid has written and produced his own material with a childhood friend (Axe to the Face) and also produced and acted Off Broadway with a theater company formed with other Esper alumni. He is currently working on a script inspired by the insanity of the modern world and drawing from his favorite role ever, being a father. You might catch Reid running to make a train (time is relative), throwing a football through the streets of New York with his boy, or carrying his small dog like a child (this isn’t always his choice). Reid is a sucker for a good story told with heart, creativity and imagination. 

Freja Zeuthen is an award-winning Danish-American actor with training from the William Esper Studio in New York and an MFA in Acting from the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. She works internationally across film, television, and theater, with a career spanning the United States, the United Kingdom, and Scandinavia.

She most recently appeared in a recurring role as Jules in Love Story on FX. Other credits include a recurring role in Halston (Netflix) and roles in Billions (Showtime) and OM City. Her awards include the Grand Jury Award for Best Actress for End of an Affair at the New York International Film Awards, Best Actress for Night Out at the Paris Film Festival, and the Jury Prize for Best Actress for Axe to the Face at Screamfest.

Freja is incredibly drawn to emotionally complex storytelling, rooted in a deep fascination for human connection and behavior. The daughter of a magician father and a psychologist mother, she grew up at the intersection of imagination and human psychology—an upbringing that led her to performing and acting from the age of 10, and of course, riding a unicycle to school every day. 

She is also a lover of travel and as a teenager would often go to the airport just to daydream and people-watch.
