Brown

ACTOR. DIRECTOR. DANCER.THEATRE & FILM ARTIST.


Hanna Brown is a Los Angeles based actor and director. Her passion for acting is rooted in her deep interest in human psychology, along with a ferocious love for performing.

In May of 2026, Hanna graduated with a degree in Theatre (emphasis in Acting/Directing) at California State University, Northridge. With a love for physical and character work, she has acquired specialized training in Mask, Clown, and Dance. She previously trained for a summer at Stella Adler Academy, where she focused on camera acting and movement. She looks forward to continuing her training and seeing where her craft takes her.

Hanna is known for her diverse range and ability to embody various characters. In October of 2024, she played Vivian Bearing in Wit, a play following a prestigious professor of poetry as she grapples with end of life due to ovarian cancer (in which Hanna shaved her head for the role). From there, she went straight into playing the brash and loud Mrs.Wormwood in Matilda the Musical where she exercised her comedic, dance, and vocal chops. A week after that closed, she went into rehearsals for an all queer production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream where she played Demetrius. Most recently, she was seen as Morticia In Addams Family the Musical.

Hanna has also worked with Teenage Drama Workshop (TADW) for two summers now, teaching and inspiring children ages 12-18. In 2025 she assistant directed Matilda the Musical, and in 2026 she choreographed Addams Family the Musical with the program.

Although work is her main passion, she is also passionate about her family, music, wellness / exercise, and coffee.

ABOUT HANNA BROWN (SHE/HER)


“One of the things that made the play stand out was the presentation of the character Helena, played by Hanna Brown. The passion Brown radiated through the room made her character the most interesting one. Helena interacted the most with the audience out of the characters in the play, and the audience members laughed and clapped for most of her time on stage.”
