Janine Theisen Actress, Stuntwoman
Hi! Sozialisiert und aufgewachsen in Ost-Berlin, mit viel elterlicher Liebe und eigener zum Sport. Mit 8 Jahren beim Friedrichstadtpalast angefangen und dort meine Freude am Theater entdeckt. Nach längeren Sprachaufenthalten in Paris und Mexiko mit 23 Jahren eine Schauspielausbildung gemacht und diese 20 Jahre später mittels eines staatlichen Stipendiums in L.A. vertieft. Inzwischen eine grandiose Karriere als Stuntfrau hingelegt und Mutter geworden. Heute sind meine Tage wunderbar abwechslungsreich gefüllt mit Traumrollen (Dr. Nice), Stuntwork (Babylon Berlin) und einer guten Portion Arbeit mit Kindern an eigenen Stücken und im Mathematikunterricht (Berliner Grundschule). Ich liebe neue Rollen, sowohl im "echten" als auch im "fiktiven" Leben und genieße meine Leben!
