Willow Nash

Julie Sturrock

Willow trained at East 15 Acting School and on leaving won acclaim for her role as Carol in David Mamet’s Reunion at the Edinburgh Festival with Blue Angel Productions: ‘the dialogue sounds as if it is being spoken for the very first time. Reality and truth abound in this superb production.’(Roderick Graham, The Scotsman.)

Willow has toured Europe and Japan playing such classic roles as Juliet in Romeo and Juliet, Agnes in The School for Wives and Louisa Gradgrind in Hard Times, the latter two both being directed by Philip Dart. For Vienna’s English Theatre, Willow played Sally Driscoll in the psychological thriller, Dangerous Obsession. Her flair for comedy was evident in the new play by Sean Aita, Raising the Roof on tour with Forest Forge Theatre Company.

In London she understudied and played Sheila Birling in Stephen Daldry’s production of An Inspector Calls directed by Julian Webber at The Playhouse Theatre, West End. She has also acted in various short films and on television in Channel 5s Family Affairs, playing Doctor Hutton.

Willow works extensively with the 4-8 age range currently performing her one woman shows at birthday parties and community events.

This summer has seen her donning stilts to perform with the street theatre company – Swank at festivals all over England and Wales.

She also enjoys doing voice-overs and talking books and has recorded David Mamet’s Edmund in which she plays all the female roles for Aquarius Productions. She is on the team of Audio Describers for the blind for Sky Television describing films, travel shows and documentaries.
