My story
Through magical, visual universes, I tell personal, earthbound stories. My work is visually based – always aiming at making the abstract concrete in a poetic and humorous way. Often as comments on society with biographical inspiration from my own life.
Over the years I had the privilege to work with various artists from cross the world on the topics that matters the most to me. Whatever I do, my heart is always in it, and I use my own life – from dreams and passions to tragedies and fears – as a source of inspiration. I have made performances about living with dyslexia, wanting to save the world, being a woman, being a mother, female sensuality, my grandfather’s dementia and the death of my father. I use my personal experiences and commitment to create high-intensity performances about things that matters.
I share my practice working with personal stories, in different setting, like the Danish actor union or the Danish acting school.
Since 2003 I have my Prague-based theatre cabinet Secondhand Women, we had our 20 years anniversary i 2023. Secondhand Women.
From 2006 to 2021 I had my Danish group CoreAct
I offen work as an actress for various theatre companies. The last years I played all from traditional stage theatre, to one by one interactive theatre or children theatre. Among others I am currently an actress in Pernille Garde, Teater Freeze Productions, Åben Dans, Kassandra Production.
A childhood calling
I grew up knowing that I wanted to be an actress – I wanted to perform. This wish became even stronger when I as a child experienced theatre where play and fantasy completed my view on the world. My point of view was also marked by dyslexia which meant that I had to rely even more on my ability to express myself physically and visually.
I since attended different theatre schools worked as crew on different theatres and I keep educating myself. I ended up worked many years in the international performing arts scene with a base in Germany and Prague before returning to Copenhagen where I am located today.
