About

Hello, I’m Elizabeth Gelvin, an American and Australian citizen and a freelance actor and writer. I’ve built a varied career across stage, screen, and virtual performance, often under aliases such as Kim Gelvin, Kit Granger, or KG Shine Productions, collaborating with theatre companies and online communities. My work spans traditional theatre, film, and Second Life theatre, where I enjoy bringing characters to life and exploring different storytelling media.

I specialize in acting, voiceover, and writing, including one-woman shows and screenplays. I love collaborative projects, mentoring emerging performers, and exploring new venues to tell compelling stories.
