Eliza Beresford

My name is Eliza Beresford and my pronouns are she/her. I am an actress, performance artist, singer, dancer, choreographer and director currently residing in the greater Manchester area. I am currently studying an MA in Contemporary Theatre and Performance Studies, as well as already retaining a BA Hons in Theatre and Performance studies. I have over 13 years experience with classical and contemporary theatre, as well as musicals, dance and singing. I have also been involved in short films, as well as fundraising projects for different theatre companies. I am an individual who is eager to push their abilities and expand on their skillets within the Performance sphere, and proceed to create theatre that can be utilized as an agent in promoting interventions and instilling change.
