Léa Des Garets

About me

Léa was Lady Capulet in the Summer 2025 production of ‘Romeo & Juliet’ at Shakespeare’s Globe and is currently filming a sizzle short in Wales (BEACH BODY - BFI/Cymru) for which they're filming underwater.

Léa's debut play 'GEORGE' (which she wrote, produced and starred in) had a 3-week run at Omnibus Theatre last summer and was critically acclaimed, with 5*and 4*reviews.
"[Léa des Garets] gives a measured, articulate performance that's immediately relatable." (The Stage)
"A must-see on every front" (Young(ish) Perspective)
"One the best things I've seen" (Salterton Arts)
