Beloved Star Trek actress Marina Sirtis returns to make UK her home
MARINA SIRTIS gained worldwide acclaim as the sexy and cerebral “Deanna Troi” in the successful
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION TV series and four Paramount feature films. In 2020 Marina
reprised her role in STAR TREK: PICARD’s most popular episode of the season, NEPENTHE.
Marina’s dramatic range has also earned her opportunities on stage, television, and in feature films
far beyond the STAR TREK franchise. Films include the Academy Award-winning Best Picture CRASH,
for which she received a SAG Award (Ensemble). In 2019, Marina made her West End debut in DARK
SUBLIME at Trafalgar Studios, and she has also enjoyed performing in pantomime. On television,
Marina starred as “Queen Wealhtheow” in Syfy Channel’s movie GRENDEL as well as recurring
as “Orli Elbaz” on NCIS. Additional TV credits include: GREY’S ANATOMY, WITHOUT A TRACE,
GIRLFRIENDS, and THE CLOSER.
Born in London, Marina secretly applied to the prestigious Guildhall School of Music and Drama
because her parents initially did not want her to become an actress. After graduating, Marina earned
her acting chops in theatre in the UK before moving to Los Angeles.
