After graduating with a degree in Performing Arts at Worcester, she climbed the first rung of the ladder, touring schools in TIE (Theatre In Education). Her career has seen her travel to many weird and wonderful locations meeting many odd and beautiful creatives. Annaliese’s most significant achievement is touring mid-scale theatres in children’s theatre shows. Annaliese is delighted to work at PQA at none other than The Rhett Theatre at Arrow Vale, the very same theatre she attended a Saturday drama group as a painfully shy child. In all her work with young people, watching their confidence and ability blossom is the most rewarding part of her job.
