“Working as an actress and director has been one of the greatest joys and challenges in my life. Working on stage and in front of the stage, both with professionals and with amateur adults and children, is truly enriching, in my opinion. Understanding the art of telling a good story and working with people, both real and fictional, will always be my great passion.

After living in London for 14 years, I was surprised by the limited opportunities for children and young people to develop their creativity on stage without being judged or tested. Through my work as an actress, director, and teacher, I have witnessed the transformation in children and young people when they express themselves and challenge themselves in a different way. The greatest compliment parents can give me is that their children radiate happiness when they come home.”

For as long as she can remember, Laura has been captivated by the dramatized reality in the world of music and theater — initially fueled by melancholic ballads and colorful MGP shows (Anne Gadegaard in golden pants doing the splits was the ultimate inspiration!).
