Victoria Cyr
Actor, Poet & Singer
Victoria grew up in Hawaii, surrounded by beauty & myth, nearly forcing her to start writing poetry by the time she was seven. Her passion for acting and music, always entwined, and blossomed over the many years that took her to many places. Along the way she earned a degree in journalism, wrote for a newspaper in Canada where they called her Lois Lane, and later became public relations director of a hospital across the river in rural Maine. Since then she’s studied and acted in Los Angeles, Boston and New York City, where she lived several years and contemplated the meaning of life and how she might most effectively contribute her talents to the world. (she’s still figuring this out...)

Following this logic, she of course moved to the City of Angels in search of Bob Dylan. He eluded her, masked and anonymous, but she pressed onward, manifesting destiny and reading/performing her poetry across, throughout and in-between the city, including writing poetry for the art exhibit, “Flow- Fine Lines On Water”, curated by friend and Barcelona beauty Dianna Cohen. Simultaneously, Victoria was honored to be featured as the resident poet (everybody’s gotta have one) on legendary DJ Jim Ladd’s show, “Headsets”, Wednesday nights on KLOS 95.5 FM - the first place her songs Wake Up To Dreaming, Memphis, and Sweet Dreams, forged with groove master Steven Last on their record O Positive (O+), debuted.

It was on this path in the heart of Hollywood that Victoria discovered the insightful and life-transforming acting coach, Ivana Chubbuck, who helped her remember over the two years she studied with her, why and just how much she loves to act. But alas, for many reasons (including that her back ached from driving the 101 Freeway every day), angels beckoned her back to Boston, where she now lives about a mile from the beach - acting, writing, modeling, (why not) and finishing (finally) her first novel, “The Sand Dollar Chronicles”, which of course, takes place in Hawaii, where it all began. A circle of life... The Lion King. Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. Clicking our collective heels together. All of us returning Home. Remembering who we are. Dreaming of Peace. Waking All Connected. All Ways All One.

Peace.

TRACK 1 - Orla

wake up. wake up. I have to tell you something... wake up please. Orla was a being who had a dream. she was human. she loved. coffee-black. red wine a lot. rode a motorcycle. liked sleeping on the beach. dancing naked in the rain. listening to the beat. the beat... the beat always, for a while she tried to fit in-
but the box was too small. so she hung out at sea and smoked a peace pipe with redwoods and sequoia trees. one night under the fully belly moon...
she let go of everything
she didn't need.
fear... was the first to leave... followed and connected to a little thing called greed. Orla hopped on her bike and took off down the road. she was never alone under the fully belly moon she figured ot what she had to do... and fell in love
with everything. and remembered who she was. who she was. who she was...
wake up
wake up
