Biography

Natascha trained at the Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in London and the TVI Actor's Studio in Los Angeles.

Her dynamic stage presence and distinctive voice have led to classical as well as modern theatre roles ranging from Isabella in Shakespeare's Measure for Measure to Romy Vogtländer in The Woman Before (Soho Theatre). Her subtle sense for comic timing and her ability to express suppressed emotions make her perfectly suitable to portray strong women as well as off-the-wall characters, both on stage and on screen.

Recent independent UK feature film credits include Riot and Press on Features' The Ice Cream Wars (distributed by Brit Films) for which she is also Executive Producer. She is also a highly experienced Voice-Over Artist for TV, radio and videogames who provided the German voice of Peggy Carter in Captain America.

Natascha is of German/Ukrainian descent. She speaks English, German and French and is a student at the Arthur Murray Dance School.
