Kelleia Sheerin
Kelleia Sheerin - a Wild West born, world-class broad - is an award-winning director, choreographer, actor, dancer. Her first short, THE FEMININE MYSTAQUE, is a dark comedic feminist horror flick, whichi received awards at the Wildcat Spirit Film Festival and FirstTime FilmMaker Sessions. Kelleia won “Best Director" in the Hollywood Fringe Festival for I Want to Bury My Testimony.

From directing on stage and screens to dancing as an absurd Scottish Tart in Eric Idle’s live radio-play What About Dick? From portraying the savvy Burlesque Star, Tempest Storm, in Gangster Squad to camping-it-up as a 16-year-old camp counselor in Wet Hot American Summer - First Day of Camp to originating the role of Billie Veruka Wynette in Urban Cowboy, the musical which garnered her “Best Mullet on Broadway” to choreographing on a myriad of shows, plays & musicals, Kelleia has an inherent understanding of story, a respect for the unpredictable, the 10,000+ hours of a professional and the ability to solve anything.
