Louisa Camilla Grinyer
Hi! I’m Louisa Grinyer, I’m nineteen and based in London, England. I love theatre, music, sport, reading and writing! I’m an experienced stage actress being a member of the National Youth Theatre and having performed in a variety of different genres: notably Shakespeare’s Beatrice from ‘Much Ado about Nothing’, and ‘Hamlet’s’ Ophelia. I’m passionate about singing; have attained my Grade 8 ABRSM and am currently preparing songs for my Diploma. This I’ve exercised through musical theatre performances, such as playing Mme Thenardier in ‘Les Misérables’, and Yonah in ‘Children of Eden’ with the YESOS company. Notable classical performances have included Dido’s Lament in Cadogan Hall and choral performances in St Paul’s Cathedral. I’ve also had experience on screen through acting in several music videos, and extra work in ‘Actress’ with Andrea Riseborough and ‘People in Landscape’, directed by Rider. I’ve also had screen training with the National Youth Film Academy and NYT.
