WELCOME
Hi, I'm Paul!
I'm a Latinx/American actor, director, and musician from Western NY with a BFA in Music Theatre from State University at Buffalo! Feel free to look around!
CURRENT:
Paul has spent the past year and change in Rochester taking care of his family during the pandemic. He has worked on his skills as a guitarist, chef, and learned a lot about fitness and weight lifting.
In December, he will be in the premiere production of A Golden Girls Christmas Carol: The Musical at OFC Theatre Center.
Tickets are available here.
If you'd like to work together, please head over to the Contact tab to get a hold of me!
In the meantime, stay safe and stay well!

"The one to beat is the least likely looking — the supremely confident William Barfee (pronounced Bar-fait, if you please), played to absolute perfection by Paul Urriola"
-Borak, Jeffrey. "The audience wins at Theater Barn's 'Spelling Bee'" The Berkshire Eagle 28 August 2018 : The Berkshire Eagle
"As the oddball character physically and vocally, Barfèe is played by Paul Urriola, who gives even his character’s nastiness a certain quality of aggressive charm. He gets to sing the best song in the score, “Magic Foot,” and he does a superb job with it"
-Bergman, J. Peter. "THEATRE REVIEW: the Theater Barn’s ‘Spelling Bee’ is lively, entrancing, plays perfectly." The Berkshire Edge 28 August 2018 ; The Berkshire Edge
"Paul Urriola, as Nicely-Nicely Johnson, is the comic relief throughout and his “Sit Down, You’re Rockin’ the Boat” in Act II is one of the best songs in the entire production; his energy and the choreography make for a fantastic spectacle"
-Durant, Amy. "'Guys and Dolls' is an end-of-summer delight." The Alt 28 August 2017: The Alt
"Paul Urriola, as Nicely-Nicely, grabs the moves and the notes and the energy and knocks our socks—and perhaps other items of our accoutrement—into the atmosphere. It’s theater"
-Bergman, J. Peter. "And if I Were a Bell I'd Be Ringing." Berkshire Bright Focus 27 August 2017 : Berkshire Bright Focus
