Zenia Marshall, a 17-year-old actress/singer/dancer/musician comes from an artistic family of performers. Some of her earliest memories were of her family performing on stage together. Ever since she first saw her mom singing and performing, she knew that she wanted to follow in her footsteps.
After a childhood filled with dance recitals in animal costumes, at age 14, she was asked by her dance studio to perform a short variation of Swan Lake for the pilot episode of the TV series, Some Assembly Required. Falling in love with the magic of film that surrounded her that day, she was instantly bit by the acting bug and enrolled in acting classes as soon as she could. With acting thrown in with her love of music and dance, she was naturally encouraged to take her talents to the theatre stage.
She has toured and performed with her mom, Luisa Marshall, in her award-winning Tina Turner Tribute act as a backup vocalist, alongside her dad, Steve, on drums and her sister, Kim, on lead guitar. She also appears in her mother’s TV Talk Show Simply the Best – The Luisa Marshall Show for beauty and makeup tutorials. On stage, Zenia has appeared as Buffy in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Musical, Maiden Marian in Robin Hood, The Musical, and Debbie in Opera Mariposa’s People Like Us. As co-musical director and co-choreographer, she starred as Belle in Beauty & The Beast, The New Musical. Zenia has made her acting debut on screen as supporting lead to 80’s pop star princess, Debbie Gibson, in the movie Summer of Dreams. Watch her in the new original UP TV series Date My Dad (premiering Friday June 2, 2017) as she plays one of the lead actors as Mirabel Cooper alongside 7th Heaven’s Barry Watson and the legendary actress Raquel Welch.
