About Me

I'm currently studying Performing Arts at college, and I'm moving onto Level 3 in September. I have been in a short horror film 'The Quiet' by I'm With Them Productions where I played the lead role, Alice.

I have no problem with getting mucky and wet if it means getting a scene perfect, and I will happily share my ideas.

Here are a few words from Lee Matthews (Director of The Quiet)

Jenni-Lea's ability to perform under extreme pressure and in less than ideal surroundings really amazed me. She's a constant source of joy, and has a professionalism in her approach to her acting that goes far beyond her age. She offered ideas and techniques that brought specific nuances to her character that weren't present in the script, and subsequently elevated her role to something superior than what had been written. I would love to work with her again and would happily recommend her to others for future productions.

Interests & Hobbies

I’m an aspiring performer, I enjoy being on stage and taking part in musicals whereever I can during my college course. I also take part in performances outside of college, this is due to me wanting, long term, to be on stage in the future. To help me progress, I seeked out a local LARP (live action roleplay) group called Darken Vale which I take part in, and also create character visuals such as costumes, accessories and props for myself and other characters.
On the side I enjoying practicing with my fire fans and learning new ways to manipulate fire in specific ways. I love music and enjoy playing a variety of instruments including the penny whistle in which I have mastered 'concerning hobbits’ on. I love wildlife and animals and have always had a variety of them while growing up.
