Celia Freijeiro García (Vigo, February 9, 1983) is a Spanish film, theater and television actress and producer.[2]

Biography

She was born in Vigo, Galicia, in a family with an artistic vocation: her father, Rafael Freijeiro, is a Galician painter.[3] After graduating from DeWitt High School in Arkansas (United States), she moved to Madrid where she began her training and career as an actress.[4]

She made the leap to professional theater with Paloma Pedrero's play El color de agosto which she starred in and produced herself.[5] For her performance in this text she was nominated for two of the most important theater awards in Spain: the Valle Inclán Theater Awards and the Mayte Award.[6] Since then she has participated in numerous theatrical productions, television series and films.

In 2006, at the age of 23, she created Desnudo Azul, a cultural association that in 2008 will become his own production company, PocaPena Productions.[7] To date, with Pocapena she has produced numerous plays, several short films and a feature film.

In 2010 she became a member of the board of the Sociedad Cervantina (Calle Atocha 87, Madrid) and in 2017 she became its vice-president.[8] Thanks to social networks, in February 2017, we were able to learn that construction work was beginning on her own theater, the Cervantes Chamber Theater, located in the Cervantina Society, which opened its doors in 2019.

Professional career

She has been in charge of conducting six times the Gala of the Valle Inclán Theater Awards at the Teatro Real (Madrid), being in 2014 nominated for the award for her performance in the play Los Cenci by Antonin Artaud at the Teatro Español.[9]

She has been a member of the critics and jury of numerous film and theater contests and festivals with a long history in Spain, during several of its editions.

She participated in the 28th and 29th editions of the Spanish Film Gala, presenting the Goya Award for Best Special Effects.[10]

In December 2012 she was shortlisted for Best Leading Actress at the 2013 Goya Awards for her performance in the film Todo es silencio by José Luis Cuerda.[11]

In November 2015 she was shortlisted again for the 2016 Goya Awards for her performance in two feature films in 2015. Best Leading Actress for De chica en chica by Sonia Sebastián[12] and Best Supporting Actress for La playa de los ahogados by Gerardo Herrero.[13]

With her performance as Adela Silva in the series Seis hermanas (2015-2017) she achieved considerable acclaim, both in Spain and Latin America.[14] At the beginning of 2018 her inclusion was announced to the episodes of the second season of the series Servir y proteger of TVE, beginning to be broadcast in February.[15] At the same time, news came that the actress would be part of the cast of the new series of Boomerang TV for La 1, La Otra Mirada vindictive, feminist fiction and starring mostly women, starting on April 25.[16] The actress participated in November 2018 in Gigante 3, experimental theater festival of contemporary classics, organized by the Cervantine Society, appearing in the play Sangre Forzada, within the show Herejes.[17] By the end of the year it was known that Celia would star in the new series of Leticia Dolera, Vida Perfecta, to be broadcast on Movistar Plus. [18] [19] The first chapter of this series will premiere in April this year, during the Cannes Film Festival 2019, where it competes in the Official CanneSeries Section as Vida Perfecta.[20] [21]
