“The best part of clowning is it happens in the moment… and failure is as likely as transcendence — the two things are bound up with each other. In images, the archetype of the Fool is often depicted balancing at the edge of a cliff, one foot hovering out over the abyss, suspended in the possibility of both fall and flight. There’s an openness to possibility, no matter what the outcome may be.”
-Jordan Kisner’s NYT Profile on Jessie Buckley
Alyx Muldowney is an actress, dancer and performer based in Brooklyn, NY. She is a graduate of Terry Knickerbocker Studio’s 2-Year Meisner Acting Conservatory (training closely with Terry himself) and has over 20 years of dance training in styles such as Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Lyrical, Hip Hop and Commercial Heels. Additionally she has a B.S. in Marketing from Rutgers University.
Alyx’s acting has been described as sensitive, playful, passionate and mischievous (à la Emma Stone, Rachel McAdams, Jennifer Lawrence, Renate Reinsve) with recent auditions for projects including A24 feature films and HBO Primetime television. Alyx made her film debut as Avery in Pietas, a short film directed by Ashley Blalock.
Whether in a period piece, the next great Rom-Com, any future Martin McDonagh films, edgy thrillers or indie dramas (she will gladly learn Norwegian to be able to work with Joachim Trier), Alyx will bring curiosity and a strong work ethic to any story she is able to be a part of.
Alyx is currently seeking representation to help her get into the room for on-screen roles and theatrical projects.
