A few words about myself
I am an actress, and inquisitive. I love to act on the stage and explore material, to dance in tune with my own body, and to enable objects to dance. I like to perform with puppets, to request that words write themselves into a story. I believe in theatre that can be a vehicle to change society. I love to inquire and to find solutions, to invent stories and tell them in a variety of versions. I search for new challenges and adventures, set goals for myself, and dream of new shows.
