Tania Nolan

Toi Whakaari graduate Tania Nolan first made her mark on screen in 2007, thanks to a trio of sizable acting roles. Featured in nearly every scene of period thriller When Night Falls, she also joined movie Kissy Kissy, and was nominated for a Qantas TV Award for her role as a lawyer in The Hothouse. Often cast as the icy blonde, Nolan has acted in TV's Go Girls and This is My Life, and many short films. In 2017 she played another lawyer on Australia's Home and Away, and starred in one of her most personally rewarding projects to date: as a photographer whose husband disappears in US feature And Then There was Eve. 

For me the joy comes from taking a script and expanding on that. Creating their history, discovering what makes them tick. Then playing with it, feeding off the other actors within this make-believe land. Transforming myself completely is very satisfying. Tania Nolan on This is Not My Life, TVNZ website, 2010
