Leah

Portraying Leah will be the amazing Sian Altman

Sian Altman is a UK based actress and writer, born and raised in London where she continues to live and work. After winning several poetry and short fiction competitions in her late teens she went on to study Drama at Loughborough University with the intention of pursuing a writing career but soon fell in love with acting instead.

She landed her first TV role in ITV's Mr Selfridge in 2013 then went on to play the lead role in several award winning short films, including Creation (2016) and Twenty Minutes (2017). She combined her love of writing and acting in her own short film In Sickness (2016), for which she both wrote the script and played the lead role of Beth. This film won her her first award for best actress and was selected for numerous film festivals.

She has since worked on various commercial campaigns for leading brands and has had recent publications in both Vogue Italia and Femme Rebelle magazine. She has a number of exciting feature films, due for release later this year, and is currently embarking on her first feature length script as a writer.
