Hi.

I'm Fran

I’m a professionally trained actor, voice artist, and drama practitioner based in the West Berkshire countryside.

the og career

my background

Originally from South London, I tried the sensible route with a chemistry degree, but the theatre bug bit really hard while working for a scientific publisher in Cambridge, so I retrained at a top drama school and have been working as an actor for the past decade.

I've played all sorts since - a 267 year old storyteller, a shy but sweet talking bag, several witches, robots, awkward outcasts, a couple of charming but spoilt socialites, lots of small children (I'm pint-sized), and the occasional tree.

When I’m not performing or recording, you’ll likely find me surrounded by unfinished craft projects, and trying to stop the dog chasing squirrels.

The Stage

"As Ariadne, Fran Burgoyne sails into the comedy, exuding Edwardian vanity, and yet the ruthlessness with which she destroys her ineffectual husband is brutal"
