Love drama as well as comedy and absurdist style, anything with an edge. Strong roles, edgy characters, a good sense of humor, focused presence. Have lots of costumes and clothes available for acting. Good with my own make-up. Love to learn new things and practice new or improve old skills. Good with spontaneous ideas and impro and happy to help on the set as needed. (Background in video, theater directing and sets, experience with camera, lights etc.) I LOVE ACTING - IT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME and have an intelligent range of characteristics available for many character types. I played: room-mate with robot, slap-stick comedy cook in British (Agatha Christie) murder mystery play, Italian fashion designer Carlotta, then Rita, the luxury wife on vacation with husband (and her lover), female priest in Woody Allen's Don't Drink the Water, also played Angel as well as Devil in Goetheanum "Dreikönigsspiel". Played a male role once not badly. We do regular Street-Dance performances. Played in numerous other short films and plays.
