An accomplished and Award-winning singer, songwriter, author and actor, Lily Allen has achieved success across stage, screen and television
Up next, Allen will star as the lead role in DREAMLAND, a six-part television series based on Sharon Horgan’s surreal BAFTA-winning short of the same name, which delves into the secrets, lies, loves and aspirations of four sisters living on the Kent coast. Alongside Allen, the cast also includes Freema Agyeman, Kiell Smith-Bynoe, Aimee-Ffion Edwards and Sheila Reid. The new Sky Original comedy will premiere in 2023.
Allen earned rave reviews last year with her West End debut in 2:22: A GHOST STORY, directed by Matthew Dunster. The Evening Standard declared, “Lily Allen makes a spellbinding stage debut in this clever, remorselessly effective supernatural thriller. The singer is a skittish, magnetic presence.” For her performance, she was nominated for a prestigious Olivier Award for “Lead Actress” and won “Best Actress” at this year’s Whatonstage Awards.
The Brit Award-winning, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter recently took the stage with Olivia Rodrigo at Glastonbury for a rendition of Allen's worldwide hit “Fuck You.” Dedicated to the Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v Wade, Allen following the incredible performance shared on Instagram, “Who knows, maybe I won’t hang up my microphone just yet.”
