Malak Elghamrawi

Malak is a multilingual New York City based actress and visual artist. Born in Cairo, Egypt, and raised internationally (UAE, Spain, Portugal), Malak’s acting and personal growth journey has been shaped by all of the people and places she has encountered. From a young age, Malak has always gravitated towards expressing herself artistically.

At age 7, Malak joined King’s Performing Arts (KPA), the performance troop of her elementary school in Madrid, where she was introduced to the world of performing Shakespeare. She was cast as Lysander, in a shortened version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and the challenge of being the youngest cast lead thrilled her! From that point on, she knew that she always wanted to be in the room where she could be anything - a room where art was made and she was seen.

She is currently a senior at Fordham University pursing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre Performance and a minor in Visual Arts. She is grateful for the opportunity to gain classical training during a semester abroad in London with LAMDA, where she rekindled her love for Shakespeare. Additionally, she cherishes the chance to participate in and contribute to the development of Rajiv Joseph’s new play, Horoscope.
