Jasmine Atkins-Smart, known as Jazz, is a versatile gender fluid performer residing on the outskirts of the picturesque Cotswolds in Gloucestershire. With a dynamic career spanning various genres, Jazz has showcased her talents in notable roles such as Cassius in Shakespeare's *Julius Caesar* at the Roman Verulamium, Nora Helmer in the acclaimed production of *A Doll's House* by Schoolhouse Productions, and the whimsical Sherlock Holmes in *The Accidental Adventures of Sherlock Holmes*, which embraces Lecoq clowning techniques.
Identifying as a trans* gender fluid artist, Jazz prefers female (her) or neutral (they) pronouns, and has made a name for herself as a principal boy/girl in pantomime, contributing to numerous productions both on tour and in static performances. She possesses a powerful alto voice and has participated in various musical theatre projects, including *Rouse Ye Women* and *Fat Shirley's Trailer Park Opera*. In addition to her vocal skills, she plays the basic descant recorder and guitar.
Beyond her artistic pursuits, Jazz dedicates her time to community service as a volunteer with a local food bank and police service, where she has been actively involved for nearly five years. This commitment to helping those in need not only enriches her connection to the community but also informs her performances with a depth of understanding and a passion for social change. While working in Germany, she furthered her outreach by volunteering at a café supporting the homeless.
