Chloe Wigmore
- Actress
Chloë Johanna Wigmore was born in 1988 to an English mother and South
African father in Chertsey, Surrey. By the age of 5 Chloë knew what she
wanted to be- an Egyptologist as inspired by Harrison Ford in the
"Indiana Jones" Trilogy. However, when she found out that adventures
were not always on the cards, Chloë decided that if she was not able to
have the adventures in real life, then adventures whilst acting would
still do. Chloë worked with Peer productions at the age 18 after
dropping out of fashion school for being to "risque" in her work and
started working on community theatre based projects. A year later, "The
Homophobia Project" which Chloe helped to originally devise for
theatre, was given funding by Mediabox to turn into a feature film
where Chloë played the bully, Bridget. The monologue Bridget has was
shot in just one take. From there Chloë auditioned for the American
Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York, was offered a place and Chloë
then worked three jobs simultaneously to get the money together to go.
Sadly, she fell short. But was offered a place at East 15 in London on
their Foundation Course in 2008. From there Chloë gained a place in
2009 to train at The Birmingham School School of Acting and graduated
in 2012 with a BA Honors in acting and has worked nearly continuously.
"Short Trousers", written and directed by Nigel Moffatt won the 2013
Colorado Film Festivals Special Jury prize in which Chloë played
Petula, a young woman in befriends Marilyn Monroe in her early years.
Chloë has also been in an episode of "Triumph in Skies", the second
series for TVB in Japan and continues to work in theatre recently
adding choreographer to her repertoire of skills with the Parisian
Theatre company Compaigna de la Filibuste on which she worked on "Don
Juan" playing peasant girl Mathurine and devising the choreography for
the production.
