Biography

The Stage

Repertorio Español has been Gredivel's artistic home for much of her career. There she has originated and inhabited a wide range of roles — Adela in Federico García Lorca's La casa de Bernarda Alba, Maria in his Yerma, and his Bodas de sangre, the title role in Doña Flor y sus dos maridos, Patria in En el tiempo de las mariposas, and parts in acclaimed adaptations of Latin American literary classics such as Crónica de una muerte anunciada and La fiesta del Chivo.

Critics have singled her out: The New York Times called her “hysterically funny” in El insólito caso de Miss Piña Colada, and Berkshire Fine Arts praised “a wonderful mixture of sexiness and determination” in En el tiempo de las mariposas.

Most recently she starred as Rosa in Las Vidas Rotas — a drama about a Venezuelan immigrant family written by Yessi Hernández and directed by Pablo Andrade, co-produced by Corezón, the Radio Drama Network, and Repertorio Español. The role reflected the range that defines her acting — from the sharp comedy of El insólito caso de Miss Piña Colada to dramatic turns such as Historia bien conocida — performances marked by precise timing and emotional honesty.

Screen

On screen, Gredivel appears in the 2024 feature Your Monster, alongside Melissa Barrera and Tommy Dewey, and in Life in a Day 2020, the global documentary directed by Kevin Macdonald and produced by Ridley Scott for Sundance and YouTube Originals. Her other screen work includes the short film Capturada (2025), the short A Moment for Glory, and novela and digital roles in Vidas Cruzadas and El Don (Telemicro International). Her full filmography is on IMDb.

Voice & Commercial

A bilingual voice-over artist, Gredivel has lent her voice and on-camera presence to national brands in both English and Spanish — among them MetroPlus, Babbel (“Aprende rápido”), McDonald's, Wells Fargo, Dreft, and Kohl's — moving easily between principal commercial roles, narration, and character work.

As a narrator she has recorded Spanish-language audiobooks for Audible — Nell Leyshon's Del color de la leche — and for the United States Library of Congress, whose National Library Service produced her reading of Ottessa Moshfegh's La muerte en sus manos (Death in Her Hands). Broadcast-trained and fully bilingual, her voice moves between neutral and regional Latin American accents on request.

Community

More than two decades on the New York stage have made Gredivel a staple of the city's Latino theatre community. She returns again and again to the same trusted collaborators — directors and writers including René Buch, Jorge Alí Triana, José Zayas, Pablo Andrade, and Yessi Hernández — and is a familiar face among the artists who define New York's Spanish-language stage and screen.

Training & Range

Gredivel trained at HB Studio in New York — acting with Paul Pryce and David Deblinger, scene study with Jim Boerlin — and studied acting at Taller del Método in New York City, with on-camera study under Heidi Miami Marshall and voice-over training with Manuel Herrera. Her early training in Venezuela included ballet at the Nina Nikanorova Ballet School in Valencia and television acting at Venevisión under Elva Escobar. She also holds an Associate of Arts from LaGuardia Community College.

She performs in native Venezuelan Spanish and in English, and commands a full spectrum of Spanish dialects — neutral, Venezuelan, Mexican, Puerto Rican, Dominican, and Colombian — a versatility that lets her move fluidly across the Spanish-speaking world. Beyond the script, she is a trained dancer (salsa, merengue), a photographer, and a skilled clown and puppeteer.
