Sinead Le, Main Company Member

Actor-Playwright

 

Sinead has been with The AP for 4 years now and is the writer for The Hare Who Cried Ant. She has been performing in productions since she was 15. Although most of these productions have been featured at her high school and college, The Actors Project is not only her first time being featured in an off-campus production. It had also been her first time performing in a children's theater play as of joining the group in the Fall 2011. Children's Theater has been a new experience for her and she has enjoyed every second of it. "It's rewarding just to see these kids in awe over something you've worked hard to show them."

  

Paul Flores, Main Company Member

Show Advisor, Playwright

 

Paul was born in Pasadena, a city caught in the midst of the urban sprawl of Los Angeles. In the last 15 years, he's studied acting and comedy much to the chagrin of his folks. Ah, but he knew one day, his training would lead him to accomplish something great. And that day is today, in the company called: The Actors Project.
