BETH MCMULLEN
Oh, hey.
Beth is an actor, singer, comedian, improvisor, writer, director, and voiceover artist.
She literally does all of those things. She's a very busy lady.
She also loves talking about herself in the third person.
In the space of 12 months, Beth wrote and toured three solo shows in Australia, performing to sold out audiences and critical acclaim. Her work has received award nominations and she has had successful seasons across multiple festivals, including the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Sydney Comedy Festival, as well as Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney Fringe Festivals.
In her Australian homeland, Beth had a recurring role on the final season of the comedy television series The Checkout and starred in an exciting ensemble cast of emerging comedians for the indie short film Free Bleed, which received official selection at the Oaxaca FilmFest in 2019.
She is also a founding member of the internationally-touring improv troupe Confetti Gun.
When not playing make believe for grown-ups, Beth is a passionate mental health advocate,
woo-woo enthusiast, hypocritical vegan, and gets a little too excited about natural wines.
