Early life and education

Radka Pavlovčinová was on February 1, 1989 in Senica, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia). She was introduced to performing arts in early childhood and began dancing at 3. At the age of nine, she became the world champion in IDO's disco dance disciplines. When she was fifteen years old, she moved to Prague, Czechia, where she graduated from the Jaroslav Ježek Conservatory. She did not return to Slovakia and choose to pursue an acting career in Czechia.[3][4]

Career

Having moved to Prague at 15, Pavlovčinová has never worked in Slovakia as an actress.[5] In Czechia, she has been praised for speaking Czech without Slovak accent, a significant advantage over other Slovak actresses working in the Czech film industry.[6]

She made her film debut as a teenager in 2006 in the role of Karla in the comedy film Rafťáci,[7] followed by a role in the television series Ulice and a role in the film Kdo hledá, najde.[3]

She landed her first leading role as a ballerina in the series The First Step, making use of her experience as a profesional dancer.[8] Since then, she has starred in numerous television series such as Cesty domů, Lajna, Hvězdy nad hlavou, as well as the American comedy series Miracle Workers, starring Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi. In 2019, she starred in the romantic comedy film Přes prsty.[8][9]

As a theatre actress, she has been involved with Háta Theater, Minor Theater, or Kalich Theater.[10]

In 2011, Pavlovčinová received her first Thalia Award nomination for her portrayal of the witch in Robin Hood.[2] In the same year, she portrayed Esmeralda in Quasimodo. In 2021, she performed at the Palace Theater in the comedy plays Pouic Pouic and Cactus Flower.[11][6]

Apart from her acting career, she is the lead singer of the funk group Drama Queens, performing with Dušan Marek, musician and former lead singer of the Czech rock band Support Lesbiens.[6][12] She performed with the Cuban salsa band Caribe in the past.[13]

In 2010, she portrayed a ballerina in Kanye West's 35-minute-long musical film "Runaway".[14][15]

Pavlovčinová is a co-founder of Kulturní sféra (Cultural Sphere), an organization that aims to help artists and other professionals in the performing arts industry who have struggled financially following the COVID-19 pandemic. On their behalf, she successfully negotiated with the Czech Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Finance to implement legislative changes in the financial assistance programs introduced by the government.[6][16]

Personal life

Pavlovčinová practices yoga and meditation and is known for leading a healthy lifestyle.[5] She has a tattoo on her face next to her left eye.[16] Her brother, who is six years younger, is singer, dancer and model Adam Pavlovčin.[4] Speaking about their relationship in 2022, she described him as "the calmer one" and "the peacemaker" in the family.[17] Her mother is the critically acclaimed visual artist Monika Sabo.[13] She does not keep in touch with her biological father.[17]

She resides in Prague, Czechia.[4]
