Welcome!
Jennifer (she/her) is a classically trained actor (graduate: The American Academy of Dramatic Arts NYC with honors) and, though specializing in classical and period works, frequently collaborates with playwrights on contemporary, original work. An avid traveler, she trained and performed in New York City, United Kingdom, Los Angeles, and the Pacific Northwest.
Jennifer explores many aspects of Art. Her heritage is comprised of singers, ceramicists, painters, writers, filmmakers, photographers and musicians – and she has followed in their proverbial footsteps. In addition to performing, Jennifer is a fine artist and wears many other theatrical hats: scenic artist, dramaturg, director, producer, and dialect coach. Jennifer's work has been seen onstage with The Co-Conspirators, Seattle Shakespeare Company, A Contemporary Theatre (ACT), Book-It Repertory Theatre, Sound Theatre Company, ArtsWest, Seattle Public Theatre, Theatre22, Island Shakespeare Festival, Tacoma Opera, The Secret Theatre, New York International Fringe Festival, Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the MacRobert Arts Centre in Stirling, Scotland and the Royal Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Jennifer was a contributor to Ms. In The Biz, a "premium online destination for women in entertainment who are looking for a positive community that shares resources, imparts wisdom and fosters success." She is particularly interested in telling femme-forward stories, and creating art that centers women’s voices and experiences.
She is currently based in Seattle, Washington.
"Stoic and elegant, like Virginia Woolfe without the crippling depression, but with all the intuitiveness." - screenwriter Jade Bartlett
“She has an incredible range from a kind of lyrical Impressionism to a romantic realism, but all with a certain something that is unmistakably a Jennifer Ewing piece.“ - playwright, director Susannah Rose Woods
“Jennifer Ewing...gives an incandescent performance, filled with great insight and strength reflecting the ideal qualities of the character. It’s a winning performance in a
production full of powerful acting.”
“Ewing provides a tour-de-force as The Void, every sardonic smile, slow head turn, and poised strut keeping you glued to her character every moment she’s on stage.”
