Hannah Doerksen

Hannah Doerksen is extremely excited to be making her Merlyn Productions début as the evil fairy Maleficent in “Sleeping Beauty”!

Hannah has been an avid lover of theatre since she was a tiny child watching a production of “The Lion King” in Toronto. Throughout her elementary school years, she involved herself in local children's choir musicals, as well as school spring musicals.

In grade 6, she began attending MBCI, where she stepped into chorus member roles in “The Wiz” and “Fiddler On The Roof”. In grade ten, she played Leisl in “The Sound Of Music”, and two years later, won the lead role of Belle in “Beauty and the Beast”.

Hannah plans on studying Theatre at the University of Winnipeg alongside her continued acting and vocal training, aspiring to sing and act onstage as a career!

Other interests include dancing, being an extra in Winnipeg-based films, writing, drawing, and travelling.
