Jenna Wrigley portrait

Jenna is a Theatre and Performance graduate from the University of Salford, where she achieved a First-Class Honours degree. While at Salford, she presented the university’s Univison events, showcasing her natural flair for live presenting, medical role play with excellent feedback, voice work for the video game industry, and narration for The Trial, a true crime series available on Spotify.  

Her performance work includes a role in the short film The Pit, a project produced by This Is England’s Andy Ellis. Jenna was recently selected to perform in OFFCUT 25, the short play festival at 53two, Manchester. She is currently training with Act Up North and continues to build a versatile screen and stage portfolio. 

With professional dance training in ballet, tap, and modern (Advanced 1 IDTA), and high-level football skills (left and right footed), she brings physicality and discipline to her work. As a single mother of two, she brings strength, empathy and lived experience to her work qualities that deepen her connection to character and story.
