Bramucci, a Delaware County native, works toward a radical expansion of inclusive practices. She strives to anchor Hedgerow as an artistic home for invention and possibility, and foster strong partnerships in the region to create community-centric, professional programming.

"We are thrilled to have Marcie Bramucci take the helm of Hedgerow Theatre," said Ann Byun, former President of Hedgerow’s Board of Directors.  "Her intelligence, skills, and theatre savvy are matched by boundless energy and joy.  She is already inspiring all of us with her deep commitment to community engagement, years of artistic and executive experience, and international relationships with playwrights and theatre-makers. Marcie is a visionary, a creator, a collaborator -- the ideal person to lead Hedgerow into its centennial anniversary and its next hundred years."Bramucci comes to Hedgerow Theatre Company with a wealth of experience, as a creative producer and as a community connector.”

She served as Director of Community Investment at People’s Light through 2021, where she was instrumental in cross-departmental efforts toward meaningful community engagement and exchange. She supported the development and execution of new plays through long-term community partnerships as part of the celebrated “New Play Frontiers” program. On behalf of People's Light, Marcie was the proud recipient of Art-Reach's 2015 Cultural Access Award for the company’s relaxed performance initiative (the first in the region) and inclusive practices.  

Previously, Marcie served as the Managing Director of Penobscot Theatre Company in Maine, and has supported the work of dozens of non profit organizations administratively over two decades in the field. Marcie has also supported talent managers and producers for A-list film industry artists in LA, worked in Lorne Michaels’ office on Saturday Night Live, and supported Philadelphia casting director Diane Heery in production for M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable. She received the prestigious Mark E. Lewis Award from Point Park University’s Conservatory of Performing Arts, where she completed an undergraduate degree in Theatre. Marcie also completed graduate degrees in Theatre Arts and Arts Administration from Villanova and Columbia Universities, respectively. 

About a decade ago, Marcie established a cohort of tri-state theatres, artists, and service providers who collaborate toward increased arts access and inclusion. In partnership with the Institute on Disabilities at Temple University, Bramucci helped with the debut of Smart Caption Glasses in the US, a revolutionary technology for real-time captioning developed by the National Theatre of Great Britain, which will arrive at Hedgerow in the 2025-26 season. Her work has been featured in an international study on relaxed performances and shared at regional and national convenings, including Theatre Communications Group's annual conference, Milwaukee Rep's Intersections Summit, and Kennedy Center's LEAD Conference, among others. For ten years, Marcie served as an Adjunct Professor at Villanova University, where she developed and taught a course in Theatre Administration as part of the non-profit certificate program.
