Becca Khalil (Iphigenia) is a native Philadelphia actor, creator, and collaborator. Following in Frida Kahlo's footsteps when she said "I paint myself because I am the subject I know best," Becca unpacks her own identities to relate to the world around her. She has worked mostly as an actor, at such companies as Interact and PYP, and has studied at CAPA Highschool, the Yale School of Drama, PYPM, and UArts. Humbly working to be a "Socially minded maker," her passion is in using her voice towards unpacking intersectional social politics and the systematic injustices that affect our daily lives.
