Charlotte Nicdao

It was a rejection, following a promising audition, that pushed Charlotte Nicdao to pursue the life of an actor. “I was devastated,” she remembers. “I was like, how am I this upset about this thing that’s not even my job?” In her native Australia and stateside, she has committed to the highs and lows of an on-camera career: weathering auditions of all kinds, growing her skillset as a comedic performer, and holding onto that early passion. After starring in “A gURLs wURLd” as a teenager, Charlotte appeared on the series “Camp,” “Please Like Me,” “Content,” and in short films, voiceover animation, and “Thor: Ragnarok.” The actor-musician-podcaster now stars as video game engineer Poppy Li opposite Rob McElhenney on his hit Apple TV+ workplace comedy “Mythic Quest.” Watch our recent panel featuring the cast of “Mythic Quest,” part of the first-ever BackstageFest, here: https://bit.ly/3ywejkr Stay tuned for tips and leads for Australian actors looking to break through, and check out advice on backstage.com by starting here: https://bit.ly/3dV2lJe --- Backstage has been the #1 resource for actors and talent-seekers for 60 years.
