Elizabeth Parisi
- Actress
- Art Department
Elizabeth is an accomplished actress, voice artist, presenter, radio host and screenwriter, with a wealth of experience across all.
Her love of storytelling was born onstage as a ballet dancer and blossomed into a passion for acting. As a teen, she cut her teeth on TVCs and buried herself in Shakespeare and Chekhov. This was followed by recurring television roles on NEIGHBOURS and BLUE HEELERS, plus a plethora of indie films (including award-winning short, THE FORTUNE TELLER), presenting gigs and voiceover campaigns. At one point, she danced her way around Hong Kong as Mickey Mouse.
After travelling the world and circumnavigating Australia via the sea, Elizabeth re-emerged in Ramsay Street as Lana Kline, played Mrs Harrison in Xue Xiaolu's blockbuster feature THE WHISTLEBLOWER, starred as PR Queen, Foxy Waits, in mockumentary feature I WANNA BE FAMOUS, and performed in Shakespeare productions with the International Actors Ensemble. She is now a popular audiobook narrator and a regular guest on Melbourne's number one radio station, 3AW 693.
Elizabeth studied drama at Trinity College, the National Theatre Ballet School and the National Theatre Drama School, before being awarded a VicHealth Scholarship at St Martins. While living in London, she spent a year at The Method Studio (full time) and studied at The Actors Centre. Additionally, she is a trained ballerina (RAD) and Journalism Master's graduate.
Elizabeth's writing resume includes Lonely Planet, The Australian Ballet and Channel Nine's THE BLOCK. A self-confessed cinephile and wordsmith-slash-grammar-vigilante, she more recently merged her skill sets to pen screenplays in the thriller and comedy genres. Elizabeth also has a penchant for photography inspired by travel writing and is a published children's author.
