Miss Crane - Marna Smith

Marna trained in acting at the National Theatre in Melbourne and went on to perform, direct and write plays for community theatre in Victoria, N.S.W and Queensland. She was interested in the theatre from an early age and enjoyed writing plays during her childhood. Marna was involved with the Candelo Arts Society (N.S.W.) during its theatrical heyday performing in plays and directed ‘The Rivers of China’, which went on to tour secondary schools in the region. After twenty busy years running a marketing company in Melbourne she is now focussed on writing plays and developing a TV series concept, as well as content writing for social media and web. Her play ‘Hot Chick Goes Out For A Duck’ was selected for the Merimbula Short & Sweet Festival in 2013 and Sydney Short & Sweet Festival in 2014. Life Class is her film acting debut and she thoroughly enjoyed it.
