Aussie beauty Nadia Townsend got her first big break starring as Clare Gormley in the Australian TV series Head Start in 2001, then landed the role of Fifi Sharp in the movie Fireflies (2004), a sizzling success that spun off into a series where Nadia repeated her role in 2004. Then came her skinematic debut as Liz in the oddball drama Puppy (2005), where she and her long, blonde hair play a con artist who is saved from suicide by a delusional trucker, then held hostage (and topless) in his home. More TV work followed, including a leading role in Headland in 2005-2006 as MJ Finnegan, a really big role as Allie Kingston in City Homicide from 2009-2011, and as all good Australian actresses, in a recurring role as Dr. Peta Bradley in Home And Away in 2013. On the silver screen she popped up as Linda Craig in the funnily named Danny Deckchair (2003) with Rhys Ifans and Miranda Otto; played Grace in Knowing (2009) with Nicolas Cage and childhood friend Rose Byrne; and acted as Sara in Little Monsters (2019), with Lupita Nyong’o and Josh Gad, where Mr. Skin uses his Skin Vision to share a pert pokies scene with his slow-mo skills.

Nadia is also a dramaturg, specializing in, “designing a rehearsal process for screen projects which focuses on creating a strong ensemble, embodying the script, and creating a safe and rigorous workspace,” as explained on her personal website. Whatever it truly is, she did it for Mad Max: Fury Road and a bunch of other films. Mr. Skin truly believes there’s a joke to be made with the word “dramaturg,” but he’s too busy re-watching Puppy to think of it. Down, boy!
