Sharon Stark is an Israeli actress, playwright and director. Her professional career began in dance, at the School of American Ballet in New York. After graduating, she joined Scapino Ballet in Rotterdam. She then turned into acting and studied at  Nissan Nativ Acting Studio in Tel Aviv. Stark has played lead roles in a variety of television series: Lost in Africa, Mama’s Angel, The Greenhouse Academy and more. On Stage she played dozens of critically acclaimed roles at Haifa and Khan Theater. After a decade of Repertory Theater, her work has expanded into the fields of writing and directing. Her original plays are presented at theater festivals and the best independent theater venues, including Tzavta and Tmuna Theater in Tel Aviv.

Stark‘s plays explore the paradoxes of modern life. She examines themes of identity and search for meaning by deconstructing and rebuilding a surrealistic parallel reality. With sharp humor she invites the viewer to observe role-plays and unaware choices we make. Her comedies center on processes of awakening and self-definition. The play Trulove Ltd. was recently translated into the Georgian language as part an Israeli female Plays Ontology.
