About Diane

Diane de Lacy is a Sydney-based performer known for her range, humour, and generosity. On screen, she blends seamlessly into whatever the role needs—whether that's a believable authority figure, a quirky gypsy fortune teller, a lovable Italian nonna, or delightfully unhinged horror characters.

She's fantastic at ad-libbing, thrives in funny roles, and has featured in music videos for Odette, Lime Cordiale, Sarah Blasko, and more.

Her skill set also includes fencing, archery, pole dancing, horse riding, and movement work. She's danced at the Sydney Opera House, sung in various choirs, and is equally at home in music videos, movies, and commercials.
