Ashley Anderson is Stoked to be apart of the Imperial OPA! Hailing from a one-redlight town in the grit-lovin' boonies of South GA, Ashley decided to click her heels and travel to the city bringing with her a new dish to set on the Atlanta table. As an artist she feels it is important to have as many “tools” in her metaphorical artistic “belt” as possible—Acrobatics, Aerial Arts, Tumbling, Fire-Spinning, Burlesquing, Singing, Dancing—these are are just a few things Ashley has tucked in her pockets. “As an artist,” she says, “we have only three mechanisms through which we express ourselves: Our Minds, Our Voice, and Our Bodies. We Must make it a priority to train, hone, and well-oil these machines so that we can promote growth within ourselves and combat stagnation.” Primarily, Ashley works as an Actor. You may have caught her up in Marietta with Out of Box Theatre as Sally in the new work Sally and Glen at the Palace Theatre, or if not, maybe you saw her out at the Center of Puppetry Arts in Peter Pan as Tinkerbell and Tiger Lily.
