ABOUT
Suzie Léger is an Austrian-Canadian actress based in Vienna. She studied at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting Conservatory program and the Susan Batson Studio, both in New York.
Her performance as a struggling single mum in the Austrian-Argentinian co-production Astronauts (2021), brought Suzie 13 awards at various international festivals (see resumé for the detailed list). In the German-Brazilian feature film Wien wartet auf dich (2021), Suzie acts for the first time in German and Portuguese at the same time. Furthermore, she had a supporting role in the American TV pilot Cicatrix (2018) and more.
In 2015, Suzie founded the American punk rock band What Would Tilda Swinton Do. As their lead singer, she performed in numerous music venues around the east coast of the US.
In addition to that, Suzie Léger holds a Master’s Degree in Transmedia Art from the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. And in 2021, she created Atelier Orlando, an international not-for-profit association, named after Virginia Woolf’s gender-fluid heroine. It produces film- and performance projects that break cultural norms in entertainment.
