Sara Afiba is currently starring as Eurydice in the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical Hadestown (2025) in Royal Theater Carré — her most notable role to date. Graduating from the Amsterdam Academy for Performing Arts in 2023, she has quickly established herself across film, television, and theatre, making her one of the most compelling rising talents of her generation.

She made her debut in Save It (2021) by Amira Duynhouwer and has since appeared in Het Gouden Uur (2022) with Nasrdin Dchar, WTF?! (2022), Sihame (2022), and the box office hit All Inclusive (2023). She could also be seen in the horror film Jimmy (2024), streaming on Amazon Prime, and has maintained a recurring role in the Sinterklaasjournaal (since 2024).
On stage, she performed in the music theatre production Wolfgang, het wonderjong (2022), produced by Theateralliantie & Theater Oostpool and directed by Pieter Kramer, followed by De Hospita (2023) alongside Simone Kleinsma.
As mentioned earlier, in 2025 she was cast as Eurydice in Hadestown — a performance that earned her wide recognition and critical acclaim.
