Available to hire
Hi, I am Karin De Ponti, an Italian actor, singer, and movement-based performer with international training in theatre, cinema, and music. I studied at Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London and at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, and I have worked in theatre, film, and music projects across Italy and the UK, with a strong focus on voice, movement, and collaboration.
I enjoy creating original works that blend storytelling, movement, and music, and I love collaborating with other artists and spaces to bring performances to life on stage, screen, and in community projects.
