Mention anything to do with performing arts and you've grabed my attention! Acting, dancing, singing; I love them all, but if I had to choose one then I would have to say acting is my passion. Busy busy at the mo. Iv a show this friday called Cork Acts Out in Corks Arts Theatre then Im straight into rehearsals for The Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon runing the end of October in Cork Arts Theatre. I also have another performance of Suicide Notes on the 8th of Oct for Mental Health week. Some recently plays have been Marriage by the Book, Corcadorcas The Hairy Ape, a touring production of the Children of Lir and a whore in a short film.  I have played a prisioner at Cork City Gaols Haunted History Tour. Just before this I was a Medieval Lady in Dunguaire castle in Co. Galway where I greeted and served guests and preformed as a soloist a number of songs from Ireland and excerpts from Plays and poems from Ireland. this role lasted 6months, twice a night, 5 night a week. Other performances include Mena, Suicide Notes by Peadar Donohoe, Maybel, An Ideal Husband by Oscar Wilde.Maid Marion, Babes in the Woods Pantomime by Aaron Wolfe.Madge, Female Transport by Steve Gooch. Various parts, Our Country's Good by Timberlake Wertenbaker.Jo, Low Level Panic by Clare McIntrye to name but a few. I since a young age I have been in various variety shows, street theatre, amateur plays, short films youth choirs etc... I am a fast learner and am very self motivated and can usually conquer the skill of whatever I put my mind to.
