Life

edit

Jacqueline Dunnley-Wendt grew up with her maiden name Jacqueline Dunn in Birmingham, England. She received her first dance lessons at the age of three at the Grove Lane School of Dance, and from the age of five at the Suzette School of Dance; later she received preparatory lessons at Bojangles Dance[1] in Lichfield.

She studied classical ballet, jazz dance, tap, modern dance, contemporary dance (Graham technique), drama, singing and dance education at The Urdang Academy of Ballet and Performing Arts in Covent Garden, London. She graduated with a Diploma in Teaching Musical Theatre and an Associate Teaching Certificate from the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing and the Royal Society of Arts in Dance History and Anatomy and Physiology for Dancers.

Due to the requirements of the Actor's Equity Association, she adopted the name Jacqueline Dunnley for the stage, which since her marriage has been Jacqueline Dunnley-Wendt, often referred to as Jacqui Dunnley-Wendt. In addition to her British citizenship, she has held German citizenship since 2020.

She is the artistic director of MCE shows[2] as well as the artistic and pedagogical director of the Ahrensburg Musical Theatre School.[3]

Jacqueline Dunnley-Wendt is married to the musician, conductor and theatre producer Hauke Wendt. They have two sons together and live in Ahrensburg near Hamburg.
