Ms. Briceño was born and grew up in Venezuela. She began
acting in 1973, when she joined the University Theater children’s theater
group at the University of Carabobo in Venezuela. She stayed there for ten
years. After a few years, she became more interested in other areas of
theater. She learned about producing, directing, working with music and
working with children. Finally, she took over the direction of the Academy
of Children’s Theater for more than twelve years.
During that time, Ms. Briceño took part in more than 40 shows
that included classical theater, Spanish theater and children’s theater.
She won many awards for her work.
In 1997, Ms. Briceño moved to Miami, Florida. She started
the Miami Children’s Theatre and later joined the Teatro Avante. In 1999,
the Miami Children’s Theatre was invited to bring a show to Teatro de la
Luna’s 2nd International Festival of Hispanic Theater. Since
then, she has come back three times to create shows for Teatro de la Luna’s
Experience Theater program. These plays include the adaptation and
direction of Las Aventuras de Pinocho (The Adventures of Pinocchio),
Hansel y Gretel (Hansel and Gretel) and La Bella Durmiente (The
Sleeping Beauty). |
