Tori Allen-Martin is In The Frame!

Tori is currently playing Cass and others in the premiere of Midnight Cowboy at Southwark Playhouse Elephant.

Based on the novel by James Leo Herlihy which was adapted into the 1969 film, Midnight Cowboy has a book by Bryony Lavery and music by Francis “Eg” White who has written songs for Adele, Sam Smith, Florence + The Machine and James Morrison. The production is directed and choreographed by Nick Winston, with Tori starring alongside Paul Jacob French and Max Bowden as Joe Buck and Rico ‘Ratzo’ Rizzo.

Last year Tori starred as Kristin in I Wish You Well at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and in the West End. Some of her other theatre credits include: Samuel Takes A Break (The Yard Theatre), Then, Now and Next (Southwark Playhouse), Park Bench (Park Theatre), One Man, Two Guvnors (New Wolsey, Ipswich/Nuffield Southampton), The Season (Glass Half Full Productions and Tim Johanson), The Hardest One (The Other Palace/Criterion) and Hair (Concert).

On screen, Tori is best known for her performances in Here We Go (BBC), London Kills (BBC) and Pure (Channel 4). Her further screen credits include: Mrs Sidhu Investigates (Acorn), Significant Other (Hatrick), Plebs: The War (the finale) (Rise films), The Other Half (Ranga Bee Productions), Flatshare (42 for Paramount+), Back To Life (Two Brothers Pictures) and Pandemonium (BBC). 

Tori is also an established writer. She has co-created and produced multiple new musicals, including Streets (Cockpit Theatre/Hackney Empire).

Tori recently came into the podcast booth to discuss why she said "yes" to new challenges with Midnight Cowboy, her whirlwind journey with I Wish You Well, how she established herself on stage and screen... and her recent appearance on Celebrity Mastermind!
