ABOUT BETTINA

Bettina Kenney was born in the land of the poets & thinkers, ancient forests and fairy tale castles - Germany.
Her childhood in England would explain her love for British television & theater, a predilection for a particular sense of humour and an utter aversion to the misuse of the Saxon genitive.

Bettina studied Performing Arts at prestigious theatre schools in London, the US and Germany…

With numerous international productions under her belt, Bettina has successfully made a name for herself as a multilingual actress and highly versatile voice artist for film & television on both sides of the Atlantic.

She can currently be seen on the big and the small screen in German, English and French productions.
And chances are that if you have seen anything on the big screen, the silver screen or on one of the streaming platforms recently, you will have heard her voice more than just once…

When not in front of the camera, in the recording studio or on a stage, Bettina is most likely to be seen flying around a pole somewhere on this planet.
