Karin Roepke
Art has always been a dream for Karin Roepke. From her earliest years, she wanted to be an ‘artist’. So much so that she had no hesitation in exchanging her degree in Architecture and Urbanism, earned in her native Brasilia, for a career in dance and tap dancing, which she began at the same time as university. In 1995, she took her first steps as a tap dancer with the Tap and Street Jam groups, also in the federal capital, her hometown. In addition, her debut as an amateur actress also took place in the federal capital, before she became an architect, in the play “Um Juiz de Paz na Roça”. Since then, she has added several other theater shows and films to her CV.
A year after graduating, Karin left Brasilia for the world. First, São Paulo, then musical theater and tap classes at Steps on Broadway and Broadway Dance Center – both in New York, USA. And she just kept going! Karin took singing courses with counter-tenor and conductor Marconi Araújo and spent more than three years working as an actress, singer and dancer at Cia Only Broadway, under the direction of Fernanda Chamma. All this experience took her to the stages of the well-known musicals: “Hairspray” and “Os Produtores”, where she worked with Miguel Falabella, “A Garota do Biquini Vermelho” under the direction of Marília Pêra, and “O Musical dos Musicais”, directed by Wolf Maya.
After some years of hard work, he immersed herself in acting training at the NYFA – New York Film Academy and ECAM – Escuela de Cinematografía y del Audiovisual de Madrid. As well as further training courses with: Eduardo Milewickz, Christian Duurvoort, Thierry Tremourox, Fábio Porchat and Sérgio Penna, along with professionals such as Glorinha Beutenmuller, Camila Amado and Cininha de Paula. Karin got her chance on television with the fastidious and talented Miguel Falabella, playing Olívia in the TV Globo series “A Vida Alheia” and then ALANA in the 7 p.m. soap opera “Aquele Beijo”. Still making good artistic choices, under the direction of Luiz Fernando Carvalho, she acted in the miniseries “Dois Irmãos”, also on TV Globo.
She made her film debut in 2015, participating in the film “Divã 2”, by Paulo Fontenelle, and soon after in the film “A Superfície da Sombra”, by Paulo Nascimento from Rio Grande do Sul (a state in the southern of Brazil). Her most recent feature was in the film “A Fúria” by the filmmaker Ruy Guerra. Karin has also had other projects where she has been able to develop her talents as a producer, screenwriter and actress, such as in the webseries “Marilyn, o ensaio”, and in successful theater projects along with the director Gilberto Gawronski.
In streaming, other productions: among them, the series “Chuteira Preta”, shown on Prime Video and the feature film “Área de Risco”, where she was directed by Edson Celulari, to be shown on TV Globo. Also in partnership with Celulari, she acted in two films: “Cinzas” in 2018 and “Europa” in 2020, both of which won awards and toured film festivals around the world.
