About me
I'm Evelyn Shaw, an actress and singer from Naas, Co Kildare. Following a childhood immersed in singing, dance and drama, I gained a BA Hons in Drama Studies and English Literature from Trinity College Dublin, before training on the MA Musical Theatre course at Guildford School of Acting. I toured France and Belgium for eight months until June 2013 with Emerald Isle Theatre Company performing in two new comedy plays before returning to Ireland, where I have been working steadily on stage and screen since. I am an experienced drama and dance teacher, and have taught at stage schools in Kildare and the UK since 2009. I run a series of performing arts summer camps for children, Summer Stage, which take place in July and August each year in Dublin, Meath and Kildare - visit summerstage.ie for more details.Skills
