BIOGRAPHY:
Born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, Allison got her BA in Theatre Arts and Cinema at the University of Iowa and has developed a love for theatre that makes you think. At her core, Allison is a people person. She strives to influence others, whether that be making them look inward on themselves or making them crack a smile at the absurd. She relishes any opportunity to play morally complex characters based in reality or characters that push her physical and vocal boundaries. Even more, with her ever-lengthening history with improv and a tendency to spread laughter in her day-to-day life, Allison loves the chance to leave social expectations at the door and just be silly.
