Biography

  • Nell was scouted in a National Youth Music Theatre production aged 11. She was swiftly cast in Caryl Churchill's LOVE AND INFORMATION at the Royal Court, and Peter Morgan's THE AUDIENCE in the Gielgud Theatre in the West End. She worked on projects such as GAME OF THRONES and Victoria Wood's LOVING MISS HATTO alongside her education. During this time, Nell also studied History at UCL and was handpicked by Wolfgang Tillmans to exhibit her artwork in the Royal Academy. She has also exhibited in the Saatchi Gallery.

    Whilst at university, Nell was soon dubbed one of the UK's most promising young actors for her starring role in BLINDED BY THE LIGHT, which received rave reviews at Sundance. Following this, she had her second experience working with Helen Mirren in THE GOOD LIAR, and starred in BAFTA winning ELIZABETH IS MISSING opposite the late Glenda Jackson.

    Nell has been closely involved in the independent breakthrough feature INLAND, playing next to Mark Rylance, directed by 20 year old Fridtjof Ryder.

    Alongside acting, Nell is also a climate activist, and member of the UKYCC, representing young people in the UK at COP summits and UN climate conferences.
