The WhiteLotus fan favorite Simona Tabasco discusses playing Lucia, working with Mike White, and her dream roles. 💫
get wasted off bottomless Aperol spritzes, humiliate each other during seaside terrace lunches, and harbor vague senses of ennui, Lucia, played by rising Italian actress Simona Tabasco, is running amok through the hotel’s marbled halls with her best friend Mia . Whether it’s a quick nap by the pool or charging glittery dresses to the card of her wealthy, serial cheater benefactor Dominic , Lucia’s joy is boundless — and it’s all in the name of hard work.
Lucia’s energy is so infectious, thanks to the frenzied, effortless performance from Tabasco, who told NYLON that Lucia has rubbed off on her: She felt more energized for weeks after playing the role. But actors and their characters are inextricably linked. For Tabasco, bringing that energy and spirit was natural. Working on a project like, along with Gennerao, who she had been friends with for the last decade, was a dream.
Do you think Americans’ fascination with Italy is reaching a new peak right now? It seems like so many people are traveling there. We met 10 years ago at acting school, and then Bea went to London, and I've been in Rome for years. We got the request to send our audition tapes, and I wasn't aware that Beatrice was called for Mia's part. I called her to ask for some help to tape my video and she told me that she had gotten a request as well, so we started working on mine and started dreaming together and hoping that this would happen, but maybe not because it's such a big project — and then in the end it did.
