AMARISSA SALAMA | PERFORMER
AMARISSA SALAMA
MISSION STATEMENT
As performers, we have strong and powerful voices that empower those who have been or feel silenced. Getting to share those stories, and bringing them to life is important to me, and I take pride in using my time in the spotlight to share them. Everybody has a voice, and my goal is to help others use their voices by telling these stories, and I hope my work can tell the stories that have yet to be told.

Critic Reviews
"Of course, the audience couldn't forget Harry, played by Amarissa Salama, who created a new perspective of Harry Potter. Instead of Harry being selfless and caring, Harry is shown as a braggart and a show-off. Salama took on the role with confidence, shown throughout the show with excessive gestures and an upbeat tone. From beginning to end, the audience could not deny that there was a certain "Ron-mance" between Harry and Ron!" -
"Amarissa Salama played Harry's character with a modern touch that showed their skillful comedic choices and understanding of pop culture."
