MANCA IZMAJLOVA
 Manca was born in a family of music lovers. She was getting acquainted with classical music and opera from an early age. She attended music school and played the flute for several years but very soon gave her heart to singing. At the age of fifteen she took her first singing lessons and one year later came her first solo performance. She sang Memory from the musical Cats at the “First Voice of Gorenjska” competition and won second prize. Soon after that her almost professional journey as a singer started. Accompanied by a pianist she sang in a cocktail bar in Bled and in a café in Kranj.

After watching musical Cats in Austria she decided to quit University of Law and continue her education at the Mountview Theatre Academy in London where she studied musical theatre and graduated as an actress. In her spare time she worked as a sales assistant in a boutique and during the summer sang in Slovene hotels. After leaving London she took part in an international theatre project in Africa and a year later in Germany; among other it was preformed at the Expo 2000 in Hanover.

In Slovenia she became famous practically over night for being the face and the voice of »Vesna’s Song« in the commercial for Mobitel. She appeared in several theatre shows, translated and directed two musicals, of which one was awarded with the best show prize at the biggest Slovene amateur theatre competition “Čufarjevi dnevi”.
