Jesse Hana Ellison – plays Sylvia a lab/poodle
After completing years of study in dance, musical theatre, stand up comedy and stage and screen acting, Jesse’s dream came true. She was being paid to perform in pantomimes, comedies and musicals in and around Brisbane. In 2008 she decided life wasn’t all about money, but fun and being closer to family, so she moved to the Sunny Coast for both. Since joining her CTP family in 2009, she’s performed in “Cinderella”, “The Young Ones”, “Flying Feathers”, “The Great Pretenders Encore”, “Urinetown”, “Adrift in Macao”, “Sweet Charity”, “Stiff” and “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”. She thought all of the above shows were a challenge. And then she read “Sylvia”! Being an animal lover (especially cats) playing Sylvia (female dog) is a bitch of a role, but a challenge she accepts. “Hey, I hope you enjoy the show…”
