Suzanne Jamieson was born and raised in Racine,
Wisconsin. At age 6, she already had the show-biz
"bug," as demonstrated by singing to her classroom,
Oh, Racine, a song her mother taught her about her
home town:
Oh, Racine, Racine
How you make me shiver
With your torn up streets
And your dirty Root River
Oh, I love you with my heart
And I love you with my liver
Oh, Racine...what a hole!
She continued to perform throughout middle and high
school, and was eager to get the heck out of Racine,
Wisconsin at age 18, so she went somewhere snowier and
colder: Syracuse University, where she graduated cum
laude with a BFA in Musical Theatre.
She spent a year in New York City, auditioning and
performing in A Day in Hollywood, A Night in the
Ukraine.
But Suzanne heard L.A. calling her name, so she made
the move to work in television and film while still
pursuing her first love, theatre.
In the world of L.A. theatre, her favorite roles include the sex-crazed village idiot in Puritan new
England, in the world premiere of Safe in Hell at
South Coast Repertory Theatre; Ariel in The Tempest at A Noise Within; Jack in By the Great Horn Spoon at Laguna Playhouse, and a child of paradise in
Paradise Lost: Shadows and Wings at the Theatre at
Boston Court.
Other theatre credits include Ubu Roi at A Noise
within, Couch at the Complex Theatre, Fresh Horses
with Cassiopeia Theatre Company, and Not So Tall
Tales with Theatre District at the Cast.
She has also kept busy with commercial and print work,
including Geico, Hallmark, Kiwi Carpet Cleaners, Microsoft,
Best Local Jobs, and Fox Sports.
Suzanne made her feature film debut as Mrs.
Porter in the Sony film, Boogeyman 2, where she suffers a brutal murder! You
can also see her in Suicide Hotline, a comedy sketch
on www.superdeluxe.com.
Suzanne also wrote and produced a cabaret, Speak Low, directed by Calvin
Remsberg, which she performed at the Catalina Bar and Grill in Hollywood, and recorded this year. Check back in July of '08 to buy your copy! |
