About

Inge is a South African actor, director and theatre maker. She has been active in the theatre industry since 2016. Highlights include roles in My Children! My Africa! (dir. Mahlatsi Mokgonyana) and Tweespoor (dir. Juanita Swanepoel,) which Inge adapted from the Afrikaans short prose text of the same title by Helena Gunter. She founded private production company Calaringe Productions to produce and manage the project. Her performance as Tilla earned her a best emerging artist nomination at the Toyota Woordfees. In 2025, the company produced a lauded revival of A Girl Called Owl by Jon Keevy, with Larissa Crafford-Lazarus as Owl, directed by Inge.

Inge finds great joy stepping into teaching roles. She has coached numerous students in preparation for practical drama exams and co-directed Paula Vogel’s The Long Christmas Ride Home for Crawford International Pretoria (Best Direction, FEDA 2024).

She holds a BFA with honors in theatre from New York University and recently completed the MA in Theatre Lab at RADA.

I act because I feel a responsibility to speak. I speak for mostly imaginary people who, if they lived in the real world, would not get up on a platform and speak for themselves – and if they did, would not have an audience full of strangers who all agreed to be there and listen.  I am interested in making theatre that communicates something about people, for people, through people - that we may know ourselves only ever more.
