Devielle Johnson
I am one of the co-founders of Playhouse Northwest. As an actor, I love to express the real human experience through storytelling, and I love the ability to connect with people on a human level through creating something that is powerful and entertaining. I am professionally trained in Meisner and have been acting professionally since 2005. I trained at the Seattle Acting School under JD Coburn for 6 years, as well as Playhouse West in Los Angeles. I have gone through the Meisner progression and believe in this rich and intriguing process towards the craft of acting. I am a member of SAG/AFTRA. My projects range from Film, TV, Web Series, Industrial, Commercials, and Stage. Representation includes the Los Angeles, Vancouver BC, Seattle, and Portland markets. My mission is to be a successful artist who inspires other artists in my community to passionately pursue their dreams and goals with a tenacious spirit. I deliver a rich, intriguing, real-life experience to any role. I am passionate about connecting with my partner on an emotional level and leaving the audience captivated.
