Lisa Britton
- Actress
Born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada on December 1st, 1986, Lisa
Britton and her identical twin sister Deb have had a charisma that has
enabled them to perform and entertain audiences since early childhood.
The Britton Twins' first taste of fame came as they were only six years
old when they composed and performed a children's song, winning a
city-wide music competition in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Throughout their
childhood both young ladies performed side-by-side in numerous church
talent shows, and began acting in elementary school. In 1998, both were
cast for the two lead roles in their school's production of Joseph and
the Amazing Technicolored Dreamcoat, causing controversy over the fact
that this meant a female (Deb) would play the role of Joseph,
traditionally a male's role. Their first on-set experience occurred as
uncredited actresses in the made for TV movie Songs in Ordinary Time
(2000).
After graduating high school in 2004, Deb and Lisa returned to their childhood dreams of acting and working in the entertainment industry, and enrolled in acting classes through the Cassidy Group in Halifax, and were signed as actresses immediately. Their first credited role was on the Canadian pilot Cheap Draft (2005) directed by Jay Dahl. When the show was not picked up, Deb & Lisa were realized they could not sit back and wait for their dreams to come to fruition. Self-motivated and with the support of their family, Deb & Lisa packed their car and drove 10, 000 kilometers across the continent from Halifax, Nova Scotia to West Hollywood, California to learn more about the entertainment industry.
Once they arrived in California, the Britton Twins were turning heads and stopping cars on Sunset Boulevard daily. Referred to by many within the industry simply as "the Twins," they met with representatives from the film, music and modeling industries, learning as much as they could before returning to Canada. Both young ladies look forward to lighting up both the silver screen and the small screen with their glowing smiles and bright eyes.
As these talented young professionals keep busy acting, modeling, singing, writing and working on various business projects, rest assured this is only the beginning for the Britton Twins.
