Lena Vani

​

Lena Vani is a filmmaker and trained actor based in the Northeast. She’s been gaining traction as a producer of bold, independent films, with recent projects drawing attention for their dark humor, unique tone, and collaborative spirit. Her work spans concept development through post-production, and she’s passionate about telling offbeat, character-driven stories.

 

As an actor, Lena is known for her physicality, timing, and strong ensemble work. She has a strong foundation in heightened text, recently playing Verges in Much Ado About Nothing with The Hanover Theatre Rep, where she also trained in verse, text and movement. She has additional training in the Suzuki Method, which informs her grounded, expressive style on stage and screen.
