Paige Dillon

Paige is a film and theater-maker currently based in her hometown of Monroe, New York. She is passionate about creating art that depicts strong femmes, and is particularly interested in juxtaposing the beautiful and the grotesque, both visually and thematically. Since graduating from NYU's Tisch Film program, she wrote and directed the short film Nasty, which won the Rising Student Award at the Hudson Valley Film Festival 2022 and was nominated for Best Student Short at the Waco Independent Film Festival 2022.

She has also worked as an Art Assistant at Showtime, as a Production Assistant on field shoots for Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and as Office Assistant on various independent films such as Oh, Canada and Daddio.  During the Pandemic, Paige worked as a testing coordinator for HBO.

She has been co-producing and performing in the OC Short Play Festival for four years. Her acting career includes Melvin by Gemma Cooper-Novack (Callie), Hong Kong Date Night by Angela J. Davis (Ying Ying), Amelia (Megan) by Evan Spreen. Love and Information by Caryl Churchill (Ensemble member), and HVPAL’s Performing Art 2022 and 2023 at the Samuel Dorsky Museum (Ensemble member).

When she is not working, she is playing with rats, fixing whatever else just broke, or marveling at the sky with her best friends.
