Lisa Atwood – (played by Lara Marshall)


 

LisaLisa Atwood is an excellent student, but struggles to overcome her 'good girl' image. So she's always eager to take on new challenges to prove her strength and stamina.

Lisa is determined to make a show jumper out of ex-racehorse Prancer, a but the blue ribbon remains elusive.

Lisa is completely loyal to her friends, but has a bit of a wandering eye when it comes to boys. She has a series of little crushes, but she doesn't often act on them. In series 2, Lisa's younger sister Melanie joins her at Pine Hollow, which means she'll always be underfoot.

Lara Marshall plays Lisa Atwood
Lara's love affair with show business started when she was four years old. She was taken to her first stage show and refused to leave when it finished. Since then, she has performed in shows including Les Miserables as well as a number of school productions.

Sport plays a big part in Lara's life. She has her Bronze Medallion in surf life saving, loves horse riding, cross-country running and sailing. She's an animal lover too with two dogs (Elvis and Priscilla), a guinea pig and Gladiator the cat.

Lara Marshall answers your questions:
What's your dream horse?

In the second series there is a gypsy boy and he has a black horse that is just beautiful. I would love to have that horse!

Are you like your character?
I think I am very much like Lisa. Lisa has a lot of ideas and believes in herself. She loves horses and would rather hurt herself than her friends... But she is a bit of a worry wart at times - I'm not!

What do you think you'll be doing 10 years from now?
I hope to become a big star like Nicole Kidman because I absolutely love acting - it's my passion.

Lara on Lisa in Series 2:
"Lisa is a really organised person. I wouldn't wear the same clothes she does and lisa certainly wouldn't do some of the wacky things I do with my hair. She has a big heart and she gets hurt easily. She is always there for her friends and she is utterly devoted to the club. I can imagine being friends with someone like Lisa."


Lara on Lisa in Series 1:
"I like Lisa. She does a lot in her life and I do too. She is a bit nervous of her mother who is too controlling and she doesn't like her sister very much, because her sister can be a bit annoying. I think Lisa makes friends easily but sometimes she feels a bit stressed."
