**Biography of Divan Meyer**

Divan Meyer is a versatile actor in film and voice-over, with a strong foundation in theatre. He began his theatrical journey in 2013 with a memorable debut as Edna Turnblad in the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts’ production of *Hairspray Jr.* The following year, he showcased his talent at TD Christian High School, participating in productions such as Rodgers and Hammerstein's *Cinderella* and a Canadian adaptation of *A Christmas Carol.*

After a brief three-year pause from theatre to focus on his film career, Divan honed his skills at Seneca College, graduating from the Acting for Camera and Voice program. His training included mentorship from acclaimed Canadian actress Niki Landau, a protégé of the legendary Uta Hagen. While at Seneca, he contributed to various productions, including *Question of Mercy,* *Stag and Doe,* *Strangers,* *Babies,* and *Reading Hebron.*

In 2019, Divan returned to the stage with a standout performance as the eccentric Inspector Rough in Out of the Box Theatre's production of *Angel Street*. Despite having only nine days to prepare for the nearly three-hour play, he successfully captivated audiences during the show's two-weekend run. With numerous exciting roles on the horizon in both indie films and voice-over projects, Divan is eager to further his artistic journey in film, television, and theatre.
