Founder & artistic director of English language theater company Thiasus Productions
“Verena Müller is a hard working dedicated actress. She shows up ready to work and brings a lot of heart, depth and research to her work.
Her characters feel alive and relatable. I was deeply moved by her work when I directed her. ”
Born and raised in Vienna, Austria
English was my favourite subject. The next step obviously was to move to California! After arriving there, playing the lead in the school Christmas play, finally sparked my long hidden passion for acting. Driven by the necessity to excel I took up acting classes and came back to Vienna to proceed my professional acting training.
Having always
been very driven and interested in the creative process I continue to work on my craft and try myself out in workshops, on stage and in film projects. Instead of auditioning for my dream roles and not getting them, I created my own theater company - Thiasus Productions - giving other fabulous actors their dream roles and of course hiring myself! When I’m not part of a creative team I continue to try to learn something new about myself, travel and I think of new ideas to develop.
As a child
I never knew what I wanted to do when I grow up. As an actress I can be anything!
I now live in Vienna and work as an actress in German and English on stage and on screen. I’ve also started writing and creating my own work for film.
