Ballerinamime
Therisa Barber-Shaw studied classical ballet from the age of four and later went on to graduate from London Studio Center. After dancing all over the world in shows and on cruise ships, Therisa came to New York and created the Ballerinamime. She has been performing as a professional Ballerina Living Statue for 15 years.
During that time she has become, as Tony Nominated N.Y. acting coach Matthew Corozine quotes, “A New York Institution”.
Lincoln Center hailed her as a New York Legend and invited her to perform her very own show at the home of New York City Ballet, American Ballet Theater and The Philharmonic Orchestra.
She has been featured in foreign guidebooks to New York’s Upper East Side and is also pictured in The Museum of Natural History.
Therisa has performed extensively at many prominent New York venues including The United Nations, Cipriani’s, Landmark on the Park, The Hilton, The St Regis Hotel, The Sherry Netherland Hotel, The University Club, The Jacob Javits Center, Sotheby’s Institution of Art, Tavern on The Green , The Central Park Boathouse and many more.
She has also advertised for Illadro, Olef Creations and Il Makiage cosmetics.
Guests of honor include HRH Prince Edward, The Librarian of Congress, Tommy Tune, Chita Rivera and Kim Cattrall.
Whilst performing in public Robert De Niro posed for a selfie with Therisa and another time Harvey Keitel called her ‘A bold performer’.
Therisa has been featured on the front page of New York Papers-The Spirit and Our Town. She has also featured in The Wall Street Journal, Time Out Magazine, New York Woman as well as being seen on NY1, Associated Press, Bloomberg Film Festival and CBS Weather. Her interview for Human's of New York received a combination of eight million hits on social media!
