moreAlicja Ayres is an international actor based in Dublin, Ireland. She started her acting career in the theatre world. First working with Maybe Theatre Company in summer 2000 – a group of people passionate about the theatre and the artistic heritage of the English speaking countries, thus performing only in English – she has since acted in the numerous plays and musicals with the company, performed in the International English Theatre Festival in Lublin (summer 2004) and Shakespeare Festival in Gdańsk (summer 2005).
