ABOUT

Kosha began her career in Baltimore, Maryland where she made her TV debut in HBO’s The Wire.

Her ‘plucky magnanimous warmth’ (Boston Globe), ‘radiance’ (Washington Post) and vulnerability in a host of ingénue roles saw her win the Irene Ryan Acting Award, appear in Disney’s family drama Tuck Everlasting with Sissy Spacek, as well as on the finest stages in the region.

Kosha moved to London for love in 2005. She soon established herself with a ‘faultless’ (WhatsOnStage) performance as Carol in David Mamet’s Oleanna, which earned her a Best Actress nomination from the Manchester Evening News Theatre Awards. In a national UK tour of When Harry Met Sally Kosha played acerbic New Yorker Marie with ‘sublime comic timing’ (WhatsOnStage). Most recently, Kosha was ‘superb’ (Radio Times) in a bold three-person Hamlet where she played Gertrude, a ‘mesmerising Ophelia’ (Love London Love Culture), Horatio and Rosencrantz.

While in the UK Kosha has expanded her acting experience from theatre to film, TV, voice over and games including motion capture. Now a mother of two boys, she brings presence, authority, sophistication and elegance to roles as diverse as a rebel commander in the game Crysis 3, the voice of Maybelline UK, a seductive American heiress in the period drama Victoria for ITV/PBS Masterpiece and the formidable Olympias, mother of Alexander the Great in Alexander: The Making of a God for Netflix. Kosha plays Mayor Mitchell’s wife in The Batman starring Robert Pattinson directed by Matt Reeves.

Kosha loves to sing jazz, blues and country around town - solo, in a trio and in a pop choir. She has been a regular player in LiveWired, a London-based comedy improvisation troupe.

Other endeavours:
Kosha has a 40-hour Teacher Training certificate in the Primary Series of Ashtanga Yoga from David Swenson, one of the world’s foremost practitioners. She loves games and puzzles of all kinds especially Escape Rooms, Magic the Gathering, Bridge and Tak.

writing

Kosha is an emerging script writer supported by 20 years as an award-winning actress on stage and screen, and many years as a copywriter. Having read and performed hundreds of scripts she has a well-honed sense of drama, stakes and pace. She’s a natural collaborator and thrives in a team. She’s interested in both drama and comedy led by strong flawed female characters, with themes of ambition and being an outsider.

Her latest script is a feature length rom-com set in Norway, co-written with Lucy Newman-Williams.

Kosha’s female-led action/drama feature The Fantasy Ridge is a Final Draft Big Break Top 10 Finalist, Austin Film Festival Second-Rounder and Scriptapalooza Quarter-Finalist. It's about an estranged sister and brother who attempt to climb the last unconquered route to Everest's summit -- the one that killed their father. The story is fiction, the place is real. Legendary explorer George Mallory said the route is so impossible it can be climbed “only in the imagination.” To date, all attempts have failed.

Her short script Gelert, a modern take on the Welsh legend, was shortlisted for the BBC Wales/It’s My Shout Script Call, and Black Lotus was a finalist in the London Screenwriters’ Festival The Impact 50 project,

Writing courses include:

  • TV Writing Intensive with Pilar Alessandra 2018

  • London Screenwriters' Festival 2016, 2015 and 2014

  • The ProSeries at ScreenwritingU.com, a six-month intensive, online professional screenwriting program completed in 2013

  • Women in Film and Television UK talks and workshops, ongoing
