About me
My name is Alice Smithson; I am 27 years old and originally from Yorkshire, England. I am looking for acting representation in Canada. For the past 5 years I have been living and working, for the winter seasons in Whistler, Canada, as a ski instructor and supervisor for children’s ski groups. During the summer periods I have been returning to England where I have worked in childcare and have also had the opportunity to take on theatre work, which is my first love.I have now gained permanent residency in Canada and would love to have the opportunity to continue to build by acting profession here in Vancouver.
I trained and gained my BA (Hons) Acting at UCLan in Preston, UK and did my A Levels with a focus on Drama and Child Care. After graduating from university I co-founded the Scrunchie Theatre Company, which toured the UK for 3 months with 'Extreme Withdrawal Is Manifest', a devised piece of theatre about perceptions and attitudes towards mental health. The tour included the well-known Edinburgh Fringe Festival, and was a great experience for developing our self-directing and production skills.
Recently I have played Julia Price in The Ghost Train by Arnold Ridley and Angelique in The Hypochondriac, a British adaptation of the comedic French classic by Moliere.
In 2017, until moving back to Canada in October, I worked as a Character actor and dancer for Paulton’s Park, the home of Peppa Pig World, where I played various characters through physicalisation in shows and “meet and greets”, and at various times also acting as host and compere for events.
My main discipline is Theatre but I have had previous experience in TV, Radio and Film.
