About Me

Originally from the East Midlands, Shanay has always enjoyed the performance's weird and wonderful world. Coming from a choir background as a child, Shanay has expanded their love of performing - no role is too crazy. They are current master's student at UEL studying acting for stage and screen. Their most recent project was Moon Distance with the East London Theatre Collective. They are open to new projects as their studies come to a close.
