About me
I trained as a mature student with InterACT and RADA at The Old Vic. I am a member of Equity and of Spotlight www.spotlight.com/interactive/cv/3019-6752-8635Since 2010, I have performed in a wide range of film, theatre and festival productions across the UK. Recent credits include the one woman comedy drama "Celia" at Edinburgh Fringe 2016, a short film with award winning charity FIXERS, a supporting role in the acclaimed web series "Horizon" and appearances on TV as Activia Granny and with Safestyle. Always keen to develop my skills, I regularly attend workshops at the Actors Centre and at Northern Stage. I also train in creative wisdom and clowning with Didier Danthois.

Toured as vocalist with The Melbourne Jazz Band and Bill Bradley's Quartet.

Reviews:

remotegoat 8/2/12 "As Deborah, Penny Lamport does a superb job...handled with subtlety and skill"
remotegoat 18/2/11 "Penny Lamport (Doll) has an engaging and believable comic physicality..."
Morning Star 31/1/11 on Playhouse Creatures "tremendous acting..notably by Penny Lamport...Lamport sparkles"
The Stage 3/12/09 "Penny is the maid Betsy...It's a lovely louche portrayal"
Essex Chronicle April 2003 "Penny takes on classic Duchess role. If anyone can do it justice locally, it's Penny Lamport whose roles include Shirley Valentine, Laurie Lee's Mother in Cider with Rosie, Kate in The Taming of the Shrew, Lola in Come Back Little Sheba and Tamora in Titus Andronicus.
Maldon and Burnham Standard 18/7/02 "...when I think of Shirley Valentine it will be Penny Lamport that I remember...Penny's magnificent solo performance was a tour de force."
