Zenobia Shroff has been an actress for
twenty years, she got her start in Mumbai under the mentorship of the
legendary Pearl Padamsee. With Padamsee’s encouragement, she came to
study acting at New York’s Circle in the Square theatre school. Soon
after she honed her craft at the off- Broadway theatre Castillo, where
she played several and diverse roles such as Nora in Ibsen’s ‘ A Dolls
house’ to German avant-gardist Heiner Muller.
She also performed in Mario Frattis “Erotic adventures in Venice” at the
famed La Mama and Milan Kunderas “Jacques and his master”.
She has taught drama and movement extensively throughout the new York
city area, primarily for inner city and low income children.
Most recently she was in Sooni Taraporevalas “Little Zizou”, presented
by Mira Nair. For that role she was nominated as best actress at the
Mahindra Indo-American Arts
Council film festival in 2008. Look for her in ‘When Harry tries to
Marry’, an independent film, out in September 2010.
