Babs Hopkinson
- Actress
- Casting Department
- Casting Director
A versatile actress whose wide range of characters combines warmth and
uncomprising strength. She describes herself as a universal artist
willing to go where opportunities will take her. She began performing
as a child gymnast at the early age of five years old, eventually
branching off into studying ballet, jazz, contemporary dance and piano,
which led to stage acting. She scored her first audition with a Toronto
based theatre company called KYTES (Kensington Youth Theatre Ensemble)
which then embarked upon a national tour across Canada. This launched
her career towards numerous other theatre productions across Ontario,
Canada and London, England. Her theatre experience has been
interspersed with television, voice-over and independent film projects,
in which she has portrayed everything from a workaholic science lab
technician in an independent sci-fi /horror feature entitled _Impetigo_ to
playing a goddess from Saturn in her most recent film _Suffer with Style_ in which
she emanates a sensual, yet innocent presence that doesn't go
unnoticed.
