Dilara Foscht is an internationally working multi-hyphenate: actress, dancer, and filmmaker.
Foscht was born and raised, one out of five kids, in Austria, Europe. Her ancestry however, leads back to Italy and Slovenia and Dilara spent parts of her live living in Germany as well.
As an actress, Dilara started her creative journey with dancing, competing successfully at both, national and international championships in the dance categories ballet, modern-, jazz-, acrobatic-, and musical- dance. After dancing had tickled her fancy, she hopped on the acting train, performing on stage, as well as on set in Austria and Germany. Foscht started acting at the TaO youth-theater company in Graz, which lead her to being cast, as the lead, in her first theater production. Later, Foscht studied at the Athanor Akademie of Performing Arts in Germany until she relocated to Vancouver.
Besides Dilara's European training in theatre and film, Foscht worked with renowned acting coaches and studios around the world, such as Larry Moss, the Lee Strasberg Institute, The Second City, and coaches John Homa, and Harry Shifman. Foscht was also trained by well-known voice coaches such as Bob Corff and Bruce Eckstut to name a few.
One of Foscht's most acclaimed theater productions, so far, has been Dorian Gray-Pictures of Beauty, which premiered in her hometown Graz. She was also cast for the German TV pilot I'm Awake, a leading role in the 13th season of the German TV show Das Supertalent, as well as appearing in several independent films. In 2020 Foscht co-produced and directed her first short movie Eve, which beautifully mirrors Foscht's European origin and the influence it has on her filmmaking. In 2019 Foscht received the Movieoke Award for an 'Outstanding Scene Performance' in Austria.
Apart from acting, Foscht loves to write and produce her own stories, most commonly together with her identical twin sister Bianca Foscht, who she often describes as "her better half". Foscht also is an experienced horseback rider with proper equestrian training and she enjoys singing, dancing and educating herself in multiple fields, in her spare time.
Dilara Foscht is fluent in English, German and speaks basic Italian.
