Formerly under Amanda Andrews Agency in tne Midlands but now relocated to The South represented by abcast agency.
I'm described as having a raw natural talent and empathy.

Extensive experience and
paid work has included the NSPCC, corporate training videos for Wickes aswell as character portrayal (Lady Guenivere) at the Cauldwell Ball. I have done some paid work for Rotunda Films, Money Kills and The Last Days of Edgar Harding movie, Junction 15 (as a w.p.c) and Dubious films (October) and several student films, aswell as paid days within Staffordshire University 2nd and final year Stufents under Nick Stubbs' direction, to help the students get the studio/directing experience.

Gold medal in Acting through the London Academy Music and Drama Awards.
Distinction and honours were attained for the silver and bronze respectively, thus showing a range of style, pace and material.

My profile shots are diverse the three most used showing contrast-described by my agent as: 'a gangsters moll', a 'yummy mummy' and a 'stern school ma'am'. I can change looks quite flexibly and enjoy challenging roles.

Background Information:
My interest in Acting began at school where i took part/arranged for plays such as the Wizard of Oz and various public speaking, poetry and public arts events.

Acting has been maintained upon moving away from membership with my agent in Staffordshire with supporting artist my daughter who has enjoyed a few challenging roles herself. Previously performing in Berkshire, Hertfordshire and Northampton (via the Nene Youth Group workshops).
I have a degree in english literature and psychology and trained in Social Care, that allowed me to join the Social Care Council. I have always undertaken voluntary work as Tithe of service and time.
Recent work has been with homeless population helping them walk and collecting footwear for them. Also just listening to their story.

I took part in
Crimes that Shook Britain (Screened september 2012 The Stephen Cameron Road Rage Case. This was not unpaid-proceeds go to Victim Protection), Paid
Co-orporate training video's, employment by the University of Staffordshire to teach the second and third year students, Cauldwell Ball event in costume, work for the NSPCC and some short films for film festivals last one was at the Edinborough Film Festival this summer, called 'Fragments', but 'Choices of Space','The Shed' and 'My Life After' have all done well in the short film festivals. I am professional, reliable and drive aswell.

Looking forward to working with you,

Dawn.
