Lesley Ann Pover


Lesley began her acting career touring selected scenes from Shakespeare. Her parts included Juliet (Romeo & Juliet), Kate (Taming of the Shrew) and the Boy Prince Arthur (King John). Whilst bringing up her sons, Lesley worked primarily as a teacher and sculptress. Her sculptures can be viewed in www.lesleypover.com and www.bronze-icons.com. Her most recent commission was a statue of Nelson for the World Heritage site of Greenwich. She is listed in the Dictionary of International Biography.
Over the last three years Lesley has returned to performance art, working with actors and musicians to explore the passionate longing in the love poetry of Shakespeare and Rumi.
