About
If you ever happened to fly over various Aussie airfields and camping grounds in the 2000's and spotted a young girl joyfully dancing around or practising the piano outside a motorhome hooked up to a loud generator and balancing precariousely on stacked cushions. You might have seen Orana, a sydney based Actor, Dancer & Musician with a flair & love for creativity that is more than an occupational hazard. With a strong background in Ballet, Jazz, contemporary, fosse, tap & musical theatre Orana proceeded to attain her Bachelor of dramatic arts, performance major in 2020 and since has been involved in a wonderful assortment of productions through stage and screen as an Actor, dancer, muician & pupeteer. Kinkyboots, Shrek the musical, the Boyfriend, Hunchback of notre dame, the Tempest, To kill a mocking bird, Boeing Boeing, Jurassic world exhibition & more. And most recently has had the joy of managing and performing in the very ambitious Parisian inspired 'The Red Room' cabaret & Burlesque revue as a showgirl dancer. Orana is currently learning to use the leviwand as a fun little trick
