Leila Gray Actress
I'm a British actress, writer and teacher based in Amsterdam. I teach Meisner technique and acting to adults. My heritage is Persian and Jewish. I love comedy and am currently writing a sitcom set in Amsterdam. I am also developing projects that invite people to consider how we can encourage civil society and governments to take action on the climate and biodiversity crisis.
