Hello dear reader! In the next lines you will find a human that lived all her life surrounded by what she loves!
Andra is a trained actor in Romania, graduate director and producer in London, a dancer everywhere she goes and a witness of the world that writes about love. Passing beyond her limits is a daily basis routine since she was 6. She started her path into the art sector by playing viola and piano and while her skill was evolving, she mixed the ballroom dance training into her program. Until she started her college where she became bilingual in Spanish and Romanian, she continued her dance and instrument practice every single day among with painting lessons in the weekend. Along this years she tried different sports like swimming, basketball and tenis but she never wanted to exceed into this areas, therefore now are just hobbies.
In 2015 she started her journey in the theatre industry. She was part of the biggest private acting school of Bucharest, Victory of Art, where she learned everything from theatre history, play writers, acting techniques, all the way until theatre production and management. Her talent was soon recognise by the professionals in Romania winning many prizes at theatre festivals like Best Body Movement, Special Prize of the International Theatre Festival Child in Europe, Timisoara. Her dance passion transferred quickly into the theatre stage making the most of it by performing in several musicals and original physical performances like RE-EVOLUTION. Her curious nature brings so much depth to the shows she performs in owing to the fact that she is using great skill and intelligence over text analysis, and psychological journey of the characters making all her performances feeling organic and true. Using techniques of Stanislavsky's, Michael Chekov's, Meisner's or Bella Merlin she mirrors the character she is playing to herself bringing the authenticity glince.
As much as she loves to be on stage, she adores to be on front of the camera. Her talent is present on set giving proof of endurance, and patience. One of her last short films she was part of gained multiple nomination, among which she won the prize of Best Leading Actress. Project like music videos, commercials and short films are the ones that dominate her time at this moment.
Her experience on and off stage made her to produce and direct her own ideas. The direction she took in the beginning was rooted in contemporary dance and special effects, bring light to dilemmas of modern society and QUESTIONING basic philosophical questions. Between them one of the most significant and yet successful pieces were "quod" by Samuel Beckett, and RE-EVOLUTION 1 and 2. The empty she owns towards people and art is heart warming, navigating through the production process with care and professionalism. Her focus is now shifting into the realistic side of theatre, staging soon "Crime and Punishment" by Dostoevsky.
Nevertheless, writing poetry is one of her talents she discovered last. She will publish her first poetry book in the curent year.
