Blioux Kirkby has always applied herself with great perseverance and an even more great sense
of passion. It came as nothing short of a delight to everyone when she formed a
theatre club at school for younger students and directed a wildly successful
production of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’. Almost as spellbinding and
captivating as the story from Shakespeare himself. Of course it took first
prize in a Shakespeare for Schools Festival. Blioux loves to inspire people
through her love of the arts.
With
an early love of Shakespeare Blioux Kirkby easily dawned the role of co-directing as well as performing as a
principal role in her production, Winter’s Rages, taking extracts from the
great Shakespeare’s works of art and pretty much linking them through human
aspects, such as emotions and songs. Winter’s Rages was so beautifully and
flawlessly performed at the famous Rose Playhouse (next to Shakespeare’s Globe)
it came as no surprise that audiences very well received it. Her production did
exceptionally well, selling out several times during its run.
After
her eventual graduating from drama school, Blioux has been frequently involved
in productions by the fantastic immersive theatre company, Secret Cinema.
Secret Cinema takes the audience into an immersive environment of a prestigious
film (e.g. The Shawshank Redemption which took place in a prison). Secret Cinema is highly successful and an
exciting new company to be involved with.
She
has basic burlesque training, sword fighting and combat skills, horse riding
and accents that include America, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, French, Russian, and
London. Blioux
has always known from a young age that her vivid imagination and creativity
would only be cultivated and enhanced through a career in acting.
Kirkby
lends her talents to a wide array of
theater productions, including lead actress in “Winter’s Rages” , “Day By Night”, and “Sweet Bird Of Youth” just to name
a few.
