CHRISTA JUMOKÉ KING
Christa is a London born actor of Nigerian heritage. She trained at Sylvia Young Theatre School in her teenage years then on the advice of her Nigerian mother, Christa went to university and graduated with a BSc in Psychology and Human Resource Management. Christa believes her experiences at university and the degree itself contribute to her acting.
Christa graduated from The American Musical Theatre Academy in 2014. Her credits include: THE LIFE AND DEATH OF MARTIN LUTHER KING (European Tour), CONCEALED (Nollywood movies), LEGENDS (Fox21) , CONTRADICTIONS (Lost Theatre) and ATTEMPTS ON HER LIFE (Pleasance Theatre).
Although acting is Christa's first love, she very much enjoys singing and dancing in her spare time and counts herself fortunate to have danced in the London Olympics Closing Ceremony in 2012.
Christa's aim with her work is to impact, enlighten and make a difference.
Christa speaks Yoruba.
