Who's Who: Antigoni Spanou

Over the next few days, we shall be adding a little bit of information about the current membership. Antigoni is up first, so here's a little bit about her:-





Antigoni Spanou was born in Athens, Greece in 1981. When she was young her family settled in Arta, a small city of Northern Greece. It was here that she developed a thirst for theatre and arts, something that the city significantly lacked.

At the age of 19 she moved to the UK to commence her university studies. After successfully completing a Bachelors and a Masters degree on Genetics, she got the opportunity to fulfil her life-long dream of studying theatre.

In 2004, she was accepted in Rose Bruford College on the course of European Theatre Arts. She graduated in 2007 with a First Class degree. Her performance dissertation, which was the culmination of her degree, was picked by Battersea Arts Centre and presented as part of the BAC 2007 Graduate Festival in London.

She has also been awarded a Peter Kirk scholarship, for which she undertook independent theatre research in Spain.
