Member of THEAMA, the first and internationally acclaimed Greek inclusive theatre company consisted of disabled actors in its main composition (such as the renowned actor and director Vassilis Oikonomou who founded THEAMA in 2010, Panos Zournatzidis, Christina Toumba, Giorgos Iliakis, Maria Mourelatou and herself) as well as by non-disabled ones (such as Michalis Tamboukas and Efi Toumba). Her course as an expressive and powerful actress is expressed representatively in the documentary THE.AM.A. (2014), directed by Eliana Perifanou and Maria Sidiropoulou, which depicts the work of this exquisite theatre group and it was filmed mainly during the rehearsals and the performance of Edward Albee's "The Zoo Story", a critically acclaimed production brilliantly directed by Vassilis Oikonomou. On the occasion of World Theatre Day (WTD) March 27, the documentary was broadcast that day in 2015 by the Greek TV network of Public Television.
