JILLIAN HARRIS
The Next Fantastic Leap
Jillian Harris is delighted to be reprising her role in A Memory, A Monologue, A Rant and A Prayer after appearing in its Canadian Premiere for V-Day Toronto. Jillian was inspired to pursue a career in acting after completing a four-year drama program at Unionville High School. She then went on to Queen’s University where she continued to be active in the theatre appearing in the university’s productions of Samuel Beckett’s Play as well as Sarah Kane’s Crave, while pursuing a B.A. in Women’s Studies. She would like to thank Tanisha, the cast and the production team for the opportunity to contribute to V-Day’s quest to eradicate violence against women, as well as her friends and family for their humour, patience and unwavering support.
