She / Her


Alice Pearce, originally from Wellington, now resides in Auckland, New Zealand.   A recent graduate of The Actors Program (2021-2022) she loves storytelling and performing, and delights in crafting interesting characters. She has a bevvy of experience in theatre, from Shakespeare to the absurd, and is known for her wild long limbs and 'Fleabag'-esque nature. She has also appeared in several local short films, web series and ad campaigns.


Her love of story telling extends into writing - her children's book, Ruby Loud Mouse and The Ruru was shortlisted for the Joy Cowley award and published by Bateman books in 2024. She has also written several short films and theatre shows, which often combine a kooky and whimsical style.
 

She runs a regular scene group, and delights in taking classes and upskilling, and is also a celebrant, and a speech and drama tutor. She's a big dreamer and reader, but also an energizer bunny who spent many years playing semi-pro football, loves a dance class and is trained in stage combat and can wield a sword or two!
