Marianthe Smart
I am an outgoing actress who participates in arts industry workshops and events as often as possible, and has a keen interest in literature. I also enjoy writing, actively pursuing theatre review and feature writing work. I have sent stories to the Readers Digest magazine, and contribute to UK online magazine Retox.
