Acting with Elura R.

Acting and art should be fun! That is my one and only belief when approaching acting and creating. If it doesn’t give you joy, why do it right? Discover and have fun! :) I am a graduate from the University of North Carolina in Greensboro with a B.A. in Theatre Performance. Moved to Chicago late 2016, and since, I have studied at Black Box Studio and Vagabond School of the Arts. In addition to doing stage acting since the age of 11 and film from college until now, I have worked all sides of the table. I have been an actor, director, costume designer, set builder, and wardrobe supervisor. My favorite show I’ve ever been a part of was when I played a nymph in a production of The Tempest where I got to wear full body glow in the dark paint and perform a dance in aerial silks. I have been trained in the Meisner acting technique, but as an actor use text based character analysis to develop my characters. When it comes to teaching, I choreographed for 3 summers for a musical camp and worked with fellow actors in college for audition prep and character development. Can't wait to meet you!
