Andrea Vagn Jensen
- Actress
- Soundtrack
Andrea Vagn Jensen grew up in a lot of different countries due to her
father being an engineer. Her mother was a nurse and helped out in the
hospitals near the places they lived. She has 4 brothers. When she was
19, she came back home to Denmark, where she auditioned to get accepted
for a spot in the drama school in Aarhus. She got in! After she was
done with her education to become an actress she was hired by Aarhus
Theatre (which is connected with Aarhus Theatre-school). She appeared
in plays like "Maria Stuart i Skotland" in 1991. Thereafter she
performed freelance in different theaters. She got her debut in "To
mand i en sofa." She got her big break in the danish hit-drama
"Strisser paa Samsoe", which made her famous. In 1998 she starred in
the movie "Karussel" as a prostitute. The children would probably
remember her from NU er det NU (2000), where she was the host, and from Jesus & Josefine (2003),
where she played Josefine's mother Louise.
