About
Fedna Jacquet is an actor, director, writer, and artist working across theatre, film, and television.
Rocks in water know not the pain of rocks in the sun. My work focuses on providing the experience for the rock in the water to see what life is like in the sun, and vice versa. By building bridges into the other’s experience, a foundation can exist for conversation, empathy, and hopefully respect.
