Acting
Sometimes I pretend to be other people with silly faces and weird voices. Sometimes I'm rather good at it.

Amy Spinks
Comedy Actor/Writer

Who am ya?
Hailing from Wolverhampton and graduating from Arts Ed in 2014, I've since been attempting to make people laugh (mainly as a form of therapy). Based in Kentish Town, I am found dabbling between acting for TV & Film and writing for screen and live sketch comedy.
I also work in TV as a script coordinator and ad-hoc as a script reader for multiple TV production companies, Funny Women Awards & Bafta Rocliffe.
Hobbies include: Never ironing clothes & Spin.
Talents include: An excellent Moaning Myrtle impression.
I'm always looking to collaborate with exciting and funny creatives, so get in touch!
Acting
Having trained for three years at Drama School, I can confirm I have never been asked to physicalise a sea creature since... I've had the opportunity to work with some amazing people on a variety of projects. You can check out my work below and some expensive photos of my face. Acting is fun. *Available to do more of this

















Writing
I have a huge passion for amplifying female voices and narratives on screen.
Primarily having written and created mainly short form and sketch content, I am currently working on more long form ideas for TV, with the aim of working in a writers room and as a writer/performer on a show in the future.
