Acting and Performance work.
As a performing artist, I've been fortunate enough to work with some of Sydney's best teachers and coaches in acting, singing, voice work, accent work and dance. My work as a performer has led me to be part of many wonderful projects. I've had the opportunity to work on some great short films, indie projects, web series, TV commercials and theatre productions.
Recently, I played Hanna in ‘Final Broadcast’ (Williams Street Productions), featured in Keith Urban and P!nk’s film clip ‘One Too Many’, Mike Williams and Justin Mylo’s film clip ‘Face Up To The Sun’, international TV commercial campaign for ‘Tylenol’ and national TV commercial campaigns for ‘CitiBank’ and ‘Real Insurance.’
I played Lina Lamont in ‘Singing In The Rain’, Marion in 'Priscilla: Queen of the Desert’, Louise in ‘Alison’s House’ (Depot Theatre), Tzeitel in ‘Fiddler On The Roof’, Woman in ‘A Blobfish Who Knew How To Dance Salsa’ (Ayla Drama Group), Maria in ‘9-5: The Musical’ and ‘Gangster 2’ in ‘Kiss Me, Kate.’
Reviews
“Veronica Clavijo’s Lina Lamont challenges the film’s Jean Hagen for the sheer controlled cringe-worthiness of her portrayal... Her cheese-grating voice, which Cathy will have to dub for the talkies, is wonderfully excruciating, her timing in the classic microphone shots is perfect, and her bitchiness leaves scorched earth.”

“All the lead performances are strong and memorable, but special mention to…and Veronica Clavijo (Louise the controlling wife of the brother Eben).”
— Sydney Arts Guide
“Veronica Clavijo and Shane Andrews stole the show… Clavijo, in particular, embraced every nuance of the 1940s gangster stereotype and delivered a formidable gangster, never missing a moment to offer an intimidating gaze to cast, orchestra and audience alike. Her portrayal was perfect.”

“…epitomised in the clever manipulation of their parents by Veronica Clavijo as Tzeitel… All three find the emotional turmoil of these young women as well as the clear, controlled delivery of their songs and the accompanying choreography.”
