Ali Liebert is a talented young actress who has quickly become one of Canada’s biggest rising stars. Raised in Duncan, British Columbia, Ali had a keen interest in performing from an early age. Since Donny Osmond captivated her in ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat’ at the tender age of ten years old, she knew the stage was where she was meant to be.
Ali was so passionate about singing, dancing and acting, that she dedicated her post-secondary education to honing her craft. She auditioned and was accepted into The Canadian College of Performing Arts in Victoria and completed the intensive Musical Theatre Program, graduating with honors. Ali’s classes at the Fame-esque performing arts school included acting for stage/ film/ /television, improv, physical theatre, writing, all forms of dance, musical theatre performance and film studies. Ali was quick to land an agent right after graduation, and made the move to Vancouver to pursue her acting career full-time.
Ali is available for interviews and photographs upon request.
