Serena Crouse
Serena Crouse is a passionate and hardworking Canadian artist with dual citizenship in the United States. She made her film acting debut at the age of 14 as a lead in the award-winning short film The Letter Carrier, produced by Rick Cosnett and Jesse L Martin, the ensemble cast members from The Flash. Her recurring role as Simone on the fifth and final season of The Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce (Bravo) solidified her love of the craft. Throughout her teen years, Serena appeared in Riverdale and Superman & Lois (CW), One of Us is Lying (NBC), and Kim Possible (Disney). Her two-season recurring role in the hit AppleTV+ series Schmigadoon, produced by Lorne Michaels and Cinco Paul, alongside many of the Broadway and film/TV greats, has been a career highlight. Serena continues to train with Beatrice King at King Creative Studios, as well as with Andrew McIlroy in Vancouver.
Serena's artistic roots began with dance at a young age. Throughout her competitive years, she was known for her breathtaking presence and was often described as a "performer beyond her years". She made a name for herself across the border at conventions with some of the biggest names in dance, leading her to her first professional credit at age 13, and continued to work regularly in film and television, often the youngest dancer to be cast. Favourite credits include Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (NBC), Christmas Chronicles: Part Two (Netflix), Once Upon A Time (ABC), and Descendants 3 (Disney). Along with appearing on-screen, Serena loves the rehearsal process off-screen, known in the dance community as skeleton crew, and has been chosen for many high-level projects, notably Monster High (Paramount+) and Snow Day (Nickelodeon).
Serena loves spending time with her family, baking cheesecake, watching sports, and is always trying new things with her adventurous and spontaneous spirit. She is extremely quick-witted, loyal and driven.
