Zoé Ntumba

Born in a small neighborhood of Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo , Zoé arrived in Montréal, Québec at the age of four. Very young, she discovered a real passion for theatre and she later joined the drama club of her high school. She is very interested in human rights issues so she decided to study sociology at the University of Montreal, but her passion for theatre did not completely leave her. Still carrying her love for acting, Zoé auditioned for the National Theater School of Canada and she succeeded. She entered the school in the fall of 2021 where she is currently pursuing her studies.
