In her own words...“I read in the Washington Post article about how teen girls are at an increased risk of suicide today,” says Marissa Alma Nick. "Layla, the protagonist of REBEL IN VENUS, I believe may have been written for them, to give them hope, to allow them to feel seen, and to see themselves as their own hero. Possibly, REBEL IN VENUS can inspire them to believe they have a right to unburden themselves from internalized shame, and self-hatred.”









In the words of others...The Cuban-German author graduated from the New World School of the Arts, received her BFA from the University of South Florida, and was selected for the Creative Capital Continued Education Program (host: Miami Dade Department of Cultural Affairs). She's moved to Los Angeles straight out of college, and signed to MSA dance agency where she worked as a freelance dancer in various music videos, commercials, tv shows, and movies. Then in 2012, Marissa moved back to Miami to start her own dance-theatre company Alma Dance Theater and became the founding artistic director for the festival: ScreenDance Miami.






While in Miami she's been an adjunct professor for the University of Miami's Musical Theater Department and has produced, choreographed, and directed live shows for Art Basel Miami, Faena Miami, Tigertail Productions, Vizcaya Museum, Perez Art Museum, Showfields Miami, and Together Arts.
