Sanna-June Hyde born Colchester, England, is a Finnish-English actress[1] at Helsingin kaupungin teatteri, Helsinki City Theatre. She has played in Helsingin Kaupunginteatteri's Hotelli Paradiso, by Georges Feydeau, dir Neil Hardwick, playing Marcelle Paillardin, object of Master Builder Pinglet's desires. She was also in Metsäperkele written and directed by Kari Heiskanen. Metsäperkeleis is based on the historical figure G.A. Serlachius, a Finnish 19th century industrialist. In 2012 she performed in Yksi mies, kaksi pomoa, the Finnish version of One man, two guvnors by Richard Bean, translator Mikko Koivusalo, direction Neil Hardwick.
Earlier work at the Helsinki City Theatre. The political and media satire "Koljatti" opened on 30 September 2010 at Helsinki City Theatre, in which she played Riikka Tanner, assistant to the prime minister. Political satire in theatre is new to Finland and the production was something of a groundbreaker in the deferential Finnish political climate. The play was immediately heavily criticised by the leading Finnish newspaper Helsingin Sanomat.
Sanna-June Hyde was also in the popular "Arsenikkia ja vanhoja pitsejä (Arsenic and Old Lace) as the sole female in the cast, as the two female roles were played by men.. Her third production currently running was the comedy for children "Risto Räppääjä". Both plays can be categorised as family entertainments.
The film drama "Pihalla" (known as "Playground" in Germany), in which she plays Riina, was released in October 2009. She was picked out, along with Mikko Leppilampi, by Helsingin Sanomat for special praise though the film itself received mainly poor reviews.
She has lived and worked in both England and Finland, but is now living in Helsinki. Early in her career she was noted as the mysterious female vocalist on HIM's version of "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" and "Dark Sekret Love" from "Greatest Love Songs Vol. 666" and "666 Ways to Love: Prologue", respectively.
Hyde studied in London at Drama Studio London (DSL) and East 15 Acting School. She continued her singing work by taking singing lessons in Jazz and forties popular cabaret standards.
Early theatre work in Finland started in 2001 when she returned to Finland after receiving an offer from the Joensuu City Theatre Since then she has worked in the city theatres of Helsinki, Joensuu, Espoo. Since 2005 she has been performing regularly at Helsinki City Theatre.
