Elizabeth Pan

Elizabeth Pan was born and raised in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks, California where she grew up learning to speak both English and Mandarin Chinese at the same time. Elizabeth’s auspicious stage career started in the 5th Grade when she played the posterior end of Nana the Dog in Westlake Elementary’s production of “Peter Pan.”  It could only go up from there.

In her junior year at UCLA, Elizabeth attended a production of Miss Saigon at Los Angeles’ premier theater company, Center Theatre Group and signed up for acting lessons the next day.  Elizabeth studied classical theater at the Royal National Theatre in London, the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco and The Antaeus Company in Los Angeles.  A few years later, Elizabeth was back at Center Theater Group but this time as a lead actor in the critically acclaimed production of Jessica Hagedorn’s “Dogeaters” at the Kirk Douglas Theater.
