Lyralen Kaye is a Meisner-trained actor, passionately committed to acting as a revelation of multi-dimensional humanity in all its absurdity and drama. Her performances have been described and “compelling” and “powerful,” giving her characters “a sense of mystery.” Whether in drama or comedy, she subtly, through the arc of a performance, reveals her character’s secrets.
Lyralen began her professional acting career as a slam poet in Boston in 1997. After winning the Boston women's finals in 1998, and performing shows composed of monologues and poetry, she began to study the techniques of movement theatre, and from those techniques created the one-woman play, Hail Mary, which she performed in Maine, Massachusetts and NYC.
In 1999, Lyralen auditioned for and joined the Boston theatre troupe The Improbable Players, where she worked on shows and taught drama workshops in area high schools. In the summer of 2000, she landed the roll of Madeleine in Tomboy, which ran in both Boston and at the NYC Fringe Festival.
Lyralen received her MFA in Theatre from Sarah Lawrence College. Following graduation, she landed the leading roles in three independent films between 11/2002 and 8/2003. Since then she has continued to perform in the Boston theater scene. She also founded the theater and film company, Another Country Productions, which produces innovative and multicultural new works.
Lyralen is strongly committed to a life of acting in both theatre and film .
