Nathalie Therriault, Vancouver, BC

Nathalie began acting in elementary school and after highschool found her way to Gastown Actor's Studio which in the early 90s was the breeding ground for talent in Vancouver's new emerging acting scene. It was here she first met her current mentor Michèle Lonsdale Smith who came from New York's Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute and began an intensive study of craft under her tutelage. As well, Nathalie studied with numerous acting coaches from Vancouver to Los Angeles - more notably Ivana Chubbuck and Cameron Thor. Nathalie has acted on stage and in Film and TV but her primary focus has always been the examination of craft. She has great insights and understanding on the art of acting and wishes to share this knowledge with other like minded artists.
