Lisa Kirby – Swiss/British

Lisa is a Swiss/British triple-threat based in London and Geneva. She studied at the East15 Acting School in London as well as at the Sorbonne and the Cours Florent in Paris.

She is multilingual, speaking French and English fluently as well as Italian and German to a high standard.

Born and raised in Switzerland, Lisa’s experience as a performer started with a decade-long rhythmic gymnastics career while also singing in her local choir.

At 16 she found her true calling and joined an improv team for a year while studying for a baccalaureate in music. She moved to London to pursue acting at 18.

Since the pandemic, Lisa has been amassing credits both on stage and screen.

They include; The feature film Foudre (Thunder) directed by Carmen Jaquier, which premiered at TIFF and was short-listed to represent Switzerland at the 96th Academy Awards. The short Son Dernier Visage co-directed by Virginie Hosner & Dario Willommet which toured the world film festival circuit last year. And, the stage production of Mundus et Infans directed by Andrea Brooks (Corbett Theatre).

Her title role in short film 2XL directed by Vincenzo Aiello produced by SwissMovie is set to premiere in late 2025.
