ANNA SCOTT
Singer, dancer, tap-dancer, actress, choreographer, songwriter
Parisian born yet nourished by American musical theatre, Anna explored this genre
with great passion but in her own original style, creating shows including: Let Me
Entertain You (2007), Tete A Tete (2009), Come On (2010) ... with solo versions of
jazz classics and musical standards, along with her own compositions.
She released her first CD "Hip Vintage" in 2011, with the jazz guitar player Yves
Brouqui.
In 2012, in collaboration with the company: ‘Opera Autrement’, she created, at the
Festival d’Avignon, the solo musical « Take A Chance ! » (previously « Swing Baby
Swing »). A Bridget Jones-style story much acclaimed by audiences and affirming
Anna’s original style, not only musically but choreographically and theatrically. An
english version of the show is on its way.
Classically trained as a child in both singing and dance, Anna soon moved on to jazz
and tap. Her passion for the cinema also provides her with inspiration along with the
diversity of encounters that have punctuated her career.
From a theatrical background (both her parents being opera singers), Anna made her
first appearances on stage from the age of 3, and hasn’t stopped performing since as
an actress, lead singer or dancer… She worked with the likes of Jean-Pierre
Ponnelle, Robert Fortune… along with Lionel Amadote, Claudine Allegra…
Spotted in 2004 by Eric Fréderic (leading dancer at the Opéra de Bordeaux), she
held the title role in A Ticket To Broadway, a musical tribute to the ‘golden age’ of
Hollywood, for over 200 performances.
Also appreciated for her talents as a choreographer, Anna collaborates with various
companies including the vocal trio « Lyric Sisters » with whom she frequently
performs.
Passionate about sharing her love of Musical Theatre with the next generation of
performers, she has been teaching dance at the AID School of performing arts, since
2010.
