Jen Johansen

I have performed locally at the Phoenix Theatre and the Indiana Repertory Theatre since 2002.  I’ve also been fortunate to develop a relationship with the Human Race Theatre in Dayton where I will return this fall for a fifth season to portray Veronica in GOD OF CARNAGE.  I have been a member of ShadowApe Theatre Company for six years. In 2010 ShadowApe created and produced an original piece called NOT A PEEP for the IndyFringe Festival where we were the top grossing show. I recently played Jane in THIS, an Indiana premier at the Phoenix Theatre, and have performed for many adult and youth audiences at the IRT.  A few IRT productions include THE GIVER, a farce called THE LADIES MAN, MACBETH, TWELFTH NIGHT, and A CHRISTMAS CAROL.  I have trained with the SITI Company and, thanks to the Arts Council of Indianapolis, I am a 2011 Creative Renewal Fellow and will spend a month at Shakespeare Summer School training at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London.
