Through breath, pace, and being present in the words themselves - Shannon Esra

I grew up in a home with a voracious love for storytelling and cinema. I have very early memories of my mother taking me and my brother to children’s theatre; spending weekends camping with our grandparents telling stories around a fire - both of my grandparents were highly skilled raconteurs; I was always involved in plays throughout school - It was such an intrinsic part of my life

I realised I had a talent for acting when all the grown-ups around me started to pay a little more attention to me and started to encourage me and my love for it. I just knew I loved playing pretend, as most children do, but it seemed to grow and deepen in me the older I became

I am constantly creating, I write, I paint, I also have my own production company and have two television shows I have in development, and hope to get made soon
