Rainah Gregory
Rainah was born in Australia, grew up in England, attended a conservatory in New York, and is now pursuing a degree in Virginia. To elaborate: dancing since the age of three, Rainah has tapped, turned, and kicked her way across stages, cruise ships and venues in Europe. She currently has an American accent (due to her American family) however will slip into British phrases and annunciations here and there (as would happen when you have spent sixteen years of your life in Britain). She now divides her time between three jobs, school, creating things, and watching a lot of British television programs. Rainah completed the Integrated Program at AMDA NY, studying singing, acting, and dance in 2017 and moved to Virginia to pursue a degree in 2018. After studying at PVCC and leading the PVCC Dance Club for 2 semesters, she applied to transfer to UVA as a Second year, and got in! After taking Screenwriting, Directing 1, and acting in the 2020 New Works Festival, Rainah became intrigued by the opportunities offered by the UVA Drama Department and looks forward to becoming more involved. She won the written category of Comedy Knight 2020, is part of University Vocal Jazz, has been a part of poetry and fiction workshops, and she is an American Sign Language student. She aspires to collaborate with Deaf artists in the future.
