LEAH MUSTARD
After completing the Apprenticeship and Advanced Apprenticeship Programs, Leah is excited to play with the Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble in 2024. In 2022, Leah graduated with a Bachelor of Arts/Secondary Education from the University of Queensland and completed her Honours program in 2023. She has recently been seen in The Penelopiad (Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble), Macbeth (Queensland Shakespeare Ensemble), As You Like It (Thunderbear Productions for Anywhere Theatre Festival), Judgement Day (Short + Sweet Festival) and The Bald Soprano (University of Queensland).
As an artist, Leah is interested in the intersection between education and theatre, as well as making classical texts more accessible to young people interested in Shakespeare and performance. Leah acknowledges that they live and perform on the stolen lands of the Yuggara and Turrbal peoples, and extends her respects to their elders, past and present.
