Meet Christine Evangelista

Actress Christine Evangelista discusses her starring role in "Goodbye Baby," which is scheduled for DVD release on the day of her BTR interview! Christine plays a young woman who struggles to become a successful standup comic – a difficult profession for ladies of any age. This show kicks off our salute to the “Funny Ladies of Showbiz” during the month of June. Christine’s film career includes such movies as "The Good Guy," "Arranged: The Musical," and "The 9th Circle." Most recently, she was a supporting lead in "The Joneses," co-starring Demi Moore and David Duchovny. Christine will soon be seen with Robert Loggia in "Harvest" and in "Once More with Feeling," directed by Jeff Lipsky. Bitten by the acting bug as a child, Christine started her career performing at the City Lights Youth Theatre in productions which allowed her to show off both her singing and dancing abilities. She broke into television guest starring on such shows as "Conviction," "Law and Order," "Third Watch," "SVU" and as a recurring regular on the series "Killpoint" with John Leguizamo. After earning the lead role in "Goodbye Baby," she researched her part as a standup comic by doing improv at open mike nights at comedy clubs in New York City.
