Hello,​

I'm Leon​

​

Leon Aschwanden is a Swiss-born Actor, Performer, and Creative, currently based in London, UK. Raised in Asia and Europe, he values the importance of cultural and historical bases in the creation of theatre and performance, bringing together theatre techniques from all over the world into contemporary settings and styles.

​

He has worked extensively in the German and English Entertainment industry, both on stage and in film, collaborating with industry professionals such as Markus Welter, Marc Forster, Frieder Wittich, and Charlotta Hansen.

​

Completing his studies at East15  Acting School and at The Stage Academy of Switzerland has allowed him to widen his creative palette, exploring Commedia del Arte, Bouffon, Clowning, Physical Theatre, and various dance styles such as Bharatanatyam as a part of his toolkit.

​

With the founding of Fifth Floor Theatre Company, Leon steps into a new phase of creation, one that unites his love of imagery and performance. His vision is to weave visual storytelling with emotionally resonant narratives, offering audiences an intimate, lived-in experience that lingers long after the curtain falls.
