The crime drama by Bernd Eichinger and Hark Bohm (director) Vera Brühne, Drei Schwestern made in Germany (director: Oliver Storz), Matthias Schweighöfer's successful directorial debut What A Man or the highly acclaimed three-parter Krupp - Eine deutsche Familie show the changeability of her.

As a permanent ensemble member at the Burgtheater in Vienna, she was most recently seen in productions by Jette Steckel (Antigone), Christian Stückl (Diener zweier Herren) or also Simon Stephens (Wastwater), among others. In Die letzten Zeugen, a project by Matthias Hartmann and Doron Rabinovici, which was invited to the Theatertreffen in Berlin, she participated as well as in Der böse Geist Lumpazivagabundus, a co-production with the Salzburger Festspiele (director: Matthias Hartmann). Since 2017, she has played the Werke in the JEDERMANN, and in 2021 she will be seen for the first time in the role of the Devil.
