Kel (Janis) is an actor and writer who started out in radio, moved on to stage, and has over the past several years worked increasingly in film and video.

She most recently appeared in The Radio Show: It’s a Wonderful Life (multiple roles), and Seven-Thirty Productions’ staging of A Flea in Her Ear (as Olympe), both at Ottawa’s Gladstone theatre.
