- Lisa Dwan is an Irish actress, from Coosan, Athlone, Co. Westmeath, Ireland. She originally wanted to be a ballet dancer having been chosen to dance with Rudolf Nureyev in the Ballet San Jose's production of "Coppélia" in Dublin when she was 12 and left school at the age of 14, after winning a scholarship to attend a ballet school in Leeds. Dwan's first movie was playing the role of Agnes in an adaptation of Oliver Twist, co-starring Elijah Wood and Richard Dreyfuss. Dwan's first regular series role was as Princess Deirdre, the Mystic Knight of Wind, on Saban's The Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog. She played the role of Orla in 8 episodes of RTÉ's "The Big Bow Wow" in 2004, the role of Zoe Burke in 21 episodes of the number one Irish soap opera Fair City from 2006 to 2007, and Angel Islington on Rock Rivals. In January 2009 she starred opposite Martin Sheen as "Marika" in . She first performed in Samuel Beckett's Not I in London's Battersea Arts Centre in 2005, and was interviewed with Billie Whitelaw as part of the Beckett celebrations on BBC Radio 3. A unique friendship was formed between the pair where Billie "coached and advised Lisa on her performance" and has "fully endorsed Lisa Dwan's thrilling and technically astounding interpretation. She was passing the Baton" Dwan recently performed the piece again in July 2009 in the Southbank Centre in London to packed audiences in a time of nine minutes and fifty seconds; it usually plays for anything between twelve and fifteen minutes. The Purcell Room at the South Bank which was packed for the performance; not an unsold ticket. Dwan has performed the piece before, at the Battersea Arts Centre, but this had the feel of a canonical stage moment. And the performance itself – let us just say there were moments when the hairs went up on the back of one's neck. Whitelaw could not do the Irish accent Beckett heard in his head (it would have been too much like acting, which Beckett abhorred); Dwan has the accent, and the pace. Whitelaw's performance will always be the definitive one, but Dwan, perhaps, has delivered something even closer to Beckett's intentions. Lisa Dwan's take on Samuel Beckett's one-mouth play Not I – performed immobilised, blindfolded and with no time to swallow – was the fastest yet, and a privilege to behold".
