Susan Brady

Dunedin-born Susan Brady began her screen career in the early 1990s, running across Chinatown rooftops for TV's Gold, playing an Irish sheep-rustler. The role "was a hoot". Since then she has been an Amazonian Mum on Hercules: Warrior Princess, the ditsy sister to Belinda Todd on comedy series Melody Rules, and guested as a rebellious daughter on Marlin Bay. Aside from playing her share of mothers (Secret Agent Men), Brady has brought her voice skills to Power Rangers and the Milky Bar Kid.

Susan Brady is a skilled comic and character actor who also captures just the right amount of farce. She is especially enjoyable as the much-married Countess De Lage, who will do anything for love. Shannon Huse, reviewing play The Women at Silo Theatre, 18 October 2004 NZ Herald
