She tells us, “with the lack of productions right now, we can’t be waiting for gigs to come to us. The Self Series aims to make content for ourselves by ourselves. In writing for ourselves we can create the most real characters because we know what strengths we can play and what experiences we can draw from.”
Having grown up with two actor grandparents, Salomé has been exposed to theatre and film her entire life and knew from an early age that she wanted to pursue the same path. Back home in London she trained as an actor for several years and attended a performing arts high school before getting into Tisch and moving to New York City.
“I have worked with and befriended so many actors throughout my training years who all are confronted with the same challenge of graduating at such an unfortunate time. I reached out to my friends back home about The Self Series and they were so excited to be involved.” With the world having become reliant on technology, Salomé was able to bring together international artists into a single platform.
The young actress loved getting to work with and learn from her former classmates, and she strived to maintain these relationships in the real world. She shares that “The Self Series is not only a fun opportunity to work with new and old collaborators, but it also allows us to keep up our training and showcase our work.”
