Merrin Cavel

Originally from Christchurch, Merrin has lived and worked all over New Zealand and abroad, gaining experience in film and live theatre, both in the spotlight and behind the scenes. After graduating from drama school, she set out on a tour with her self-written solo show, Bent Not Broken, having dreams of travelling the world, experiencing every performing arts opportunity that came her way. Though the world travel didn’t get too far, she was blessed with many opportunities to perform, teach, direct and manage in the performing arts before finally settling down in Auckland, meeting her husband and discovering her new career in aged care.
