Esther is a Dunedin based actress. She has training in singing, dancing, drama and choreography. She has a particular aptitude for comedy and physical theatre. She has recently completed a contract providing living mannequin services (self-directed) to a local business and has been asked to join the company of Romeo and Juliet in Dunedin next year. She recently attended the NZ Singing School where she received training in singing, acting musical theatre. She has mad interviewing skills, is a good team player and can improvise on the spot. She also runs her own speech and drama school in Dunedin, EsSD. She is fun and hardworking in character, is goofy sometimes, extremely organised and always up for a challenge. She will soon start a contract acting for Rainbow Rosalind in children's entertainment. Other highlights include being Marcy Park in the Annual Putnam Spelling Bee in 2012 and an American Dream Dancer in Miss Saigon in 2010, both for MTD.
