Fina Strazza

Fina Strazza is a young actress whose career spans Broadway, television, and film. She burst onto the professional stage at just eight years old—becoming the youngest actress ever to play the title role in "Matilda the Musical" on Broadway, a part she held from August 2014 until July 2015, making her Broadway’s longest-running Matilda at the time. Following her theatrical breakthrough, Strazza transitioned to on-screen work, starring as Emily Parson alongside Mariah Carey in the 2015 Hallmark movie "A Christmas Melody."

Strazza continued to build her screen résumé with guest roles on "Law & Order: SVU," "Madam Secretary," and "FBI: Most Wanted" before landing a lead part as K.J. Brandman in Amazon Prime’s 2022 sci-fi series "Paper Girls." She further showcased her versatility in the Netflix horror film "Fear Street: Prom Queen" (2025), taking on the role of Tiffany Falconer -- bringing both intensity and complexity to the suspenseful teen-centric narrative.

In 2025, Strazza made a soaring return to Broadway in Kimberly Belflower’s play "John Proctor Is the Villain." Her role of Beth Powell earned her a Tony nomination for Best Featured Actress in a Play.

Strazza graduated from New York City’s New Explorations into Science, Technology & Math High School in 2023 and is a student at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts.
