Francesca Bolam is a British-born, Brooklyn-based actress, writer, and director known for her fearless, emotionally charged performances across stages in the UK and New York City. She has written, directed, and starred in original plays including Hoyt St, Dream Card, the sold-out Camden Fringe hit Tenner Bag, and the sold-out NYC production Book Club, telling raw, witty, and unapologetically human stories.

Hailing from industrial, working-class Teesside, Francesca brings grit, humor, and heart to every role. She thrives in complex, layered characters—the troubled heroine, the sharp-tongued underdog, or the fiercely independent woman navigating love, ambition, and identity. Her stage and screen work channels Kate Winslet intensity and Fleabag’s razor-sharp humor, blending honesty with undeniable presence.

Francesca’s career spans transatlantic theatre, television, and film, combining her Northern roots with NYC edge, delivering performances that are as compelling as they are unforgettable.
