About Toni

cropped-tot.jpg

My name is Toni. I am an actress with over 20 years of professional experience.

I live in South Birmingham with my husband,  3  children and a small sausage dog.

I have toured the length and breadth of the country several times over and have been lucky enough to work with some fantastic companies and creative people including, Birmingham REP Theatre, Watermill Theatre Newbury, BBC, BBC Radio, Edward Bond, Foursight Theatre, Woman & Theatre and Language Alive. I have worked with adults and children of all ages and from all walks of life.

I began Toni’s Tots Drama in 2010 shortly after having my first child who put an end to months away from home on tour. I delivered the sessions with my baby happily strapped to my back.  This kinda became my thing! Twelve years later, all three of my children have been brought up on tots drama.

I am also the Artistic Director of Knees and Toes Theatre, a theatre company that delivers highly energetic and interactive shows for young children and their families. Our first show ‘Mr Silly Pancake and the Land of Cake and Biscuits’ premiered at the Birmingham Rep Theatre in December 2107. We then had a sell-out run at the Midlands Arts Centre.

I have enhanced DBS and am an Equity member with public liability insurance.
