About Me:
I grew up inspired by the musicals of Astaire/ Rogers and Gene Kelly and couldn’t tear myself away from the film, The Red Shoes re-watching it three times (my Dad had to come and find me!).
I married in my twenties and posed for a lady who made stained glass windows and found myself loving being in character as I did so. This led to my posing at Edinburgh College of Art where I modelled for painting and sculpture and learnt how to be alive in stillness. I did Ballet classes though never performed as such and graduated to teaching. Watching rehearsals at The Dukes Playhouse, Lancaster prompted the director, Peter Oyston, to suggest I go to East 15. Acting school where I did the three year Director’s course. I subsequently taught there and directed plays. With this experience I formed Teeside Theatre Company which I ran for four years also working with professional dancers to give them characters for their parts.
Recently I appeared in ‘La Traviata’ at The Coliseum as a
superannuated Bunny Girl and appeared in two videos for Jaded which are on Tik Tok.
