Sarah Casado Thomas

Sarah Casado Thomas was born in Madrid, Spain. She was raised bilingual (Spanish, German) and spent her childhood in Spain before moving to Germany at the age of nine. As the granddaughter of Fernando Rey, the great Spanish movie actor primarily known for The French Connection (1971), The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972) and That Obscure Object of Desire (1977) and Argentinian actress Mabel Karr, she has been surrounded by the film and theatre business since she was a child. Among others, she had weekly drama training and was involved in multiple stage performances at the local theatre in her hometown for 3 years. Sarah has continued this practice wherever she went, for example during a year abroad in the United States (Fine Arts at NCS High School) and her university years in the Netherlands (USVA Acting Centre). After she successfully completed her bachelor studies in "International Business and Management" she then decided not to pursue her career in business but in acting instead. Shortly after her graduation she moved to London (UK) where she further enhanced her skills landing roles in various British short and feature films. At the same time, she trained at MN Acting Academy for Screen Acting and participated in several workshops. These included classes at the London Film School with BAFTA award winning director Richard Kwietniowski. After an eventful year, Sarah moved back to Germany to start a professional acting education. She was accepted at "Hamburger Schauspiel-Studio Frese" and successfully completed a 3-year acting study. In August 2019 she received her "Bühnenreife" diploma (German degree for graduating from a state-approved acting school).
