As an actor I have worked extensively in the UK, US and Canada. I trained at the Drama Centre in London, England and began my career at the Royal Court Theatre creating the role of Gila in a new play entitled Not Quite Jerusalem. I went on to work around the country at regional theatres and on tour, landing in Canada in 1982. I have worked on Broadway, The Stratford Festival and in numerous regional theatres across North America.
