Simonetta Gibejova is a Slovak-born, London-based actor, writer and multidisciplinary artist who moved to London in 2019 to pursue her creative ambitions.

Trained in acting and music in Slovakia, she has since developed a multidisciplinary practice spanning theatre, film, writing and visual art. Her work draws on personal experience, blending dark humour, vulnerability and experimentation to explore the complexities of living in a body and mind that don’t always cooperate with the world around them.

She is the creator of Health is a Privilege, an autobiographical theatre project examining chronic illness, psychological struggles, addiction and the social expectations placed on people who are unwell. Through her work, Simonetta challenges conventional narratives of strength and recovery, creating space for the messy, contradictory and often invisible realities of being human.

Whether on stage or through conversation, she brings an unfiltered perspective to subjects that are often difficult to discuss, with a desire to question assumptions, provoke thought and connect through shared experience.
