Celeste Den
FILM
“Celeste Den has a range that encompasses the hilariously comic to the fiercely dramatic with all the colors in between. She is incredible in an ensemble – works tirelessly and is just a complete joy to work with.
I think she’s a major talent.” – Amy Potozkin, Casting Director of Berkeley Repertory Theatre
