Kertrice
- Actress
Born and raised in Pretoria, South Africa, Kertrice has seen much of the world and is well on her way to making a success of herself.
They say that home is where the heart is and for this actress, that was split between the Northern and Southern Hemisphere. She moved to Germany at the age of 6 where she started school at the International School of Hamburg (ISH) and it was in her 4 years living in Europe, where she began her acting career.
In 2001, she auditioned for Disney's Broadway musical production 'Der Köning der Löwen (The Lion King) but being only 7 at the time, was too young for the role. She was called back the following year to train under their children's Löwen-schule (lion school) and after the training, was chosen to represent one of the top 6 new young actresses in the role of young Nala on the Broadway stage at the Hamburger Hafen.
It was on December 10th, 2003, Kertrice became the first South African, to play the role of young Nala.
She moved back to South Africa, this time to Cape Town, late 2004, where it didn't take long before she booked her next project in a local German film the following year, starring as Tarsai in : Mein Traum Von Afrika, which she performed in the German language. Kertrice's first feature film came the year after, at the age of 12, starring as Charita in : The Seven of Daran, Battle of Pareo Rock, which saw her catapulted to the premieres of the big screen and has since starred in numerous productions on the screen and stage, both locally and abroad as she studied while continuing to attend auditions and book gigs throughout her education years before graduating at the ACT Cape Town - Film Acting Academy in 2015.
Her other loves include cooking, singing, dancing, reading, relaxing at home and experiencing new things whenever possible. She finds that one of her best attributes is to still have her inner child alive. Kertrice is a dynamic and creative individual to all she sets her mind and heart to, and is definitely a force to be reckoned with.
