This is Kiva Murphy as an actress
Actress
Kiva has been working as a professional actress for over 15 years, traveling around the globe filming TV and movie projects and performing her award-winning comedy and improvised shows. If that sounds like she has a big ego.. she doesn’t. In fact she is writing this herself and fees rather awkward about it.
Throughout the past six years, whilst living in Barcelona, Kiva has shot several commercials and short films in Barcelona, including one by award-winning director Oriol Cardus as well as an episode of Cuentame Como Paso. She has also voiced animation series as well as working on a variety of voiceover jobs. She has shot two feature films, ‘Los Europeos’, directed by Victor Garcia Leon, which is released soon, and ‘It Snows in Benidorm’ directed by Isabell Coixet… 2020 is going to be a busy year!
She carried on training in London with Desmond Jones before moving to Paris to study in the prestigious Jacques Lecoq school; it was everything you can imagine a physical theatre and clown school in Paris would be: hard, intense and inspiring.
After finishing the pedagogy she moved to Barcelona where she set up her theatre company No Guilty Bones Theatre (formerly known as Can Ducks Fly?) and hasn’t looked back since.
