Sebastien Heins

Left his BA in International Development to study acting at the National Theatre School of Canada. After graduating in 2012, he took his one-man stage show "Brotherhood: The Hip Hopera" to New York City, earning him the Best Emerging Artist award from the United Solo Festival, the largest solo show festival in the world. He stars as Louis D'Costa in the pilot for in-the-works series "Second Jen" about funny yet troubled millennials, and has appeared on television shows "Cracked" (CBC, Netflix) and "Darknet" (SuperChannel). His directorial debut, "Her Chance to Dream" is a short film that garnered much attention at the 2013 Toronto Urban Film Festival, and stars Heins as well.
