Teresa Sánchez

Biography

Since she was a child she was always interested in shows and art, interests that stood out above school subjects, giving more interest to dance, music and theater. She finally became interested in theater during a break from school and got to know the Centro Cultural del Bosque, where she began to frequent and attend the plays that were presented. In high school she enrolled in a theater workshop, where, regardless of the discrimination she suffered for being an overweight woman, she understood that it could be the profession she wanted to pursue.

Teresa moved to the city of Morelia, where she began to study in the theater workshops offered by the houses of culture and went through several plays until she participated in one that was presented at the National Theater Showcase of Mexico, and with which she began to gain some recognition.

After several plays in her career the actress debuted in film with the movie ¿Dónde están sus historias, followed by Jodidos polleros (2007) and Verano de Goliat (2010) with which she obtained her first Ariel award nomination, as best actress in 2012.

She has worked in feature films such as El silencioso (2010), Minotauro (2015) and La camarista (2018), a film that gave her her second Ariel nomination, this time in the category of best female co-actress.
