About me

My name is

Alessa

 I am passionate, charismatic,

Stubborn, a perfectionist …

RANDOM FACTS ABOUT ME. I recently cut my hair; nobody thought I’d dare because I’ve had it the same since I was in kinder. I didn’t think so either, but it was exciting. (I didn’t think that I’d put this in my theater journal either) I have two fathers and six grandparents. When I was four I knew the capitals of every country in the world. I love skiing. I am in the process of writing a book about the experience of my grandfather, as a Jewish, during WWII. I have written 50 pages and want to continue, but I cannot find time to do it. Instead of a diary I have a box in which I store loose paper with my feelings, thoughts and concerns written on them. Inside the box there are rose petals, love letters, chocolate wrappers, photos, notes…  My passion in performing I have done it since I was in my mother’s womb – she would put headphones around her swollen belly and I would move; according to her I was dancing. Acting for me is like breathing. I need it. It is a catharsis A way to be someone else, understand different points of views… I always said I wanted to be a performer… at first I wanted to be like Shakira. I used to dress up and dance in every family reunion or act. Then I was too embarrassed.
