Anna Elisa Reini
I am an international actor and multidisciplinary artist. I graduated from CISPA (Copenhagen International School of Performing Arts) in the spring of 2021. Before attending CISPA, I studied theater for two years at a community college in Helsinki. Additionally, I have participated in numerous workshops across Europe.
I have been working in theaters from a very young age. I have been involved in well-known student theaters, where I am still a member. These theaters have provided me with an excellent platform to explore different genres of theater as an actor, performer, scriptwriter, director, and producer. Through these experiences and my education at CISPA, I have gained extensive knowledge of various theater methods (including movement psychology, Uta Hagen, GAGA, and Viewpoints) and their application.
I am also the creator, artistic director, and head producer of the Yötön Nattlös Festival. The festival aims to enrich northern cultural life and engage young people. I began preparing for the festival immediately after my graduation, and it was held for the first time last August. This year, the festival will be held for the second time in June. The Yötön Nattlös Festival is a passion project for me, through which I aim to bring art and culture closer to people and create new opportunities for artists.
As an artist, I am particularly interested in physical theater, exploring different voice qualities, and grounding on stage, and how to combine these elements in performances. In addition to preparing and organizing the festival, I have been actively involved in various art projects, which have enriched my skills and expanded my networks.
