I began stand up while I was training and got the bug! From then on, I started writing sketches, creating characters and continuing stand up alongside my career as an actress.

I have performed in all areas of the industry, from playing Sybil in the West End production of ‘Faulty Towers; The Original Dining Experience’ and Cassandra/ Marlene in ‘Only Fools and Horses; The Cushty Dining Experience’ to performing in to two-hander Shakespeare, musicals, pantomime and on P&O cruises.

A few years into my career, while working on a pantomime, I met my soon to be comedy partner Lizzie Franks and together we have taken two shows to Edinburgh which received 5-star reviews and interest from TV producers. I started realising I had a love for creating my own work and in 2018 while also performing in panto, the opportunity came up to create ‘The Dots’, a comedy cabaret trio with Helen Colby and Macey Cherrett, which had rave reviews in Edinburgh 2019 and got to the semi-finals of Britain’s Got Talent 2022.

Alongside my work on a collaborative level, I also am currently working on my own pilot script for a series and am continuing to develop my own characters and material. In 2021, I was selected to be showcased as part of the BBC Upload Festival and one of my sketches, Wendy The Witch, was aired on BBC Three Counties Radio and has also been chosen to be in the BBC digital archives.

Devising is also a big part of my life and I’ve worked on many projects, including co-writing/devising the 5-star international tour ‘Roald Dahl and The Imagination Seekers’ in affiliation with the Roald Dahl Guild, Get Lost and Found and Interactive Theatre International. I’ve co-devised and choreographed immersive productions in the Seychelles and Thailand and co-devised and directed the international 5-star show ‘Confetti and Chaos’, an immersive wedding reception.

I’m also a veteran Panto performer with roles such as; Fairy Bowbells in ‘Dick Whittington’ and Fairy liquid in ‘Jack and The Beanstalk’ – Riverfront Theatre; Rosemary in ‘Rapunzel’ and The Rascal Prince and Nibbles in ‘Dick Whittington’ – Bury St Edmunds, Theatre Royal; Genie of The Ring in ‘Aladdin’ and Soufflé in ‘Beauty and The Beast’ – Salisbury Playhouse; Dandini in ‘Cinderella’ – Mercury Theatre Colchester and Billi La Twerp in ‘Beauty and the Beast’, Chelmsford Civic Theatre.

So yeah, that’s me, just about! Welcome to my silly website, where you can find all my characters and latest work.
