Allison Scagliotti Of SYFY’S “Warehouse 13” To Star In Off Broadway's Unhealthy

Allison Scagliotti of Syfy’s “Warehouse 13” returns to the stage as she joins the cast of Darren Caulley’s Unhealthy for a limited workshop run at HERE Arts Center in New York from December 4th-9th.

Scagliotti will play Michelle, a fledgling actress struggling to maintain a positive relationship with her roommate as she continues to allow house visits from a mentally unstable, obsessed fan. The play also stars Chris Bellant and Broadway’s Caitlin Kinnunen, whose credits include Spring Awakening and the national tour of Next to Normal directed by Michael Greif.

Best known known as Claudia Donovan on Syfy’s “Warehouse 13,” Scagliotti’s screen credits include reccurring roles on “Drake & Josh,” “Grounded for Life,” and “One Tree Hill,” in addition to guest roles on “Zoey 101,” “ER,” “CSI,” “Mental,” and “Smallville.”

“Allison has been a blessing to work with,” says writer Caulley. “She came to the first reading dressed for the role. She is an astounding actress and finds aspects of the character I wasn’t even aware of.”

Unhealthy is a play about dependence and what happens when the person who hurts you the most is the one you need more than anything. The play has been workshopped extensively with Daniel Goldfarb (writer, Cradle and All) as well as Daniel Seth (consultant, Book of Mormon).

The production will run for seven performances December 4th-9th at HERE 145 6th Ave. (Enter on Dominick, 1 Block South of Spring).  Tickets will go on sale in October for $18.
