Paige Joustra
- Actress
Paige Elizabeth Joustra is an Australian actress, born and raised in Melbourne, and is the eldest of two children. Her father is an Australian of Dutch ancestry and her estranged mother is German/Armenian. Since the age of 4, Paige has wanted to become an actor and says this was primarily due to her love of Robin Williams' films.
At age 15, she undertook a casual job to pay for acting classes at St. Martins Youth Theatre where she trained for a couple of years while attending high school. Before graduating, Paige was heavily involved in her school's theatre programs and landed lead roles in her school's plays, helping run the theatre sports club, and in her final year, she became one of the drama captains.
As soon as Paige turned 19 she moved out and began auditioning for screen roles. She found success as the lead in several short films, most notably the award-winning Feast on the Young (2017) (MonsterFest Victorian Short Winner 2018, over 385k views on YouTube), before landing the role of Charlie in her feature film debut The Library Boys (2022).
