## About

Veronica Carlsten is a Swedish actress with over two decades of experience in improvisational theatre and screen acting. Her extensive background in improvisation has deeply influenced her craft, shaping her approach to storytelling, collaboration, and listening without expectations. She thrives on being fully present in the moment, embracing the surprises and spontaneity that come with every scene.

She is passionate about character-driven narratives and believes that the relationship between characters is the heart of any story, regardless of genre. For more than a decade, she has been a key performer with International Theater Stockholm, where she co-created and starred in the award-winning longform improv show 'Lost in Translation' (2012-2019), which explored the experiences of foreigners in Sweden and earned accolades at Svenska Scenkonstgalan. On screen, Veronica has appeared in numerous TV series such as 'Ture Sventon och Bermudatriangelns hemlighet', 'Mäklarna', and 'Mer panik i tomteverkstan', as well as the short film 'Finito' directed by Patrik Eklund.
