Krista Špīse

I am a Latvian actress, singer and performer with a passion for authentic storytelling and emotionally driven characters. My artistic background combines acting, music and dance, allowing me to bring versatility, discipline and creativity to every role.

I gained on-screen acting experience portraying Lāsma in the Tet+ drama series "Hostages" ("Ķīlnieki"), where I further developed my skills in screen acting and collaborative production work. In 2025, I also participated in the Latvian television talent show X Factor Latvia, an experience that strengthened my confidence as a performer and deepened my understanding of connecting with audiences through authentic expression.

Music has been a central part of my life since early childhood. I have been singing since the age of three and have performed as a soloist, in vocal ensembles and in a gospel choir. Alongside singing, I have extensive experience in Latvian folk dance, which I have practiced continuously since the age of three. These disciplines have helped me develop strong stage presence, musicality, body awareness and the ability to work effectively within an ensemble.

I am particularly drawn to drama, coming-of-age stories, psychological narratives and character-driven projects. I am fascinated by period dramas and historical productions, especially stories set in the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries. The elegance, emotional depth and rich social dynamics of period pieces strongly inspire me, and I would love the opportunity to work on productions in the spirit of Bridgerton, Sisi or Pride and Prejudice.

Languages: Latvian (native), English (fluent), German (intermediate/conversational).

Dedicated, curious and eager to grow, I am always looking for opportunities to collaborate with filmmakers and creative teams on meaningful and inspiring projects across Europe and internationally.
