Madeleine Wighton
Award-winning actor, filmmaker and coach. Telling comedic stories that inspire empathy and hope, with female leads and a mental health-focus.
I’ve attended way too many unexpected funerals since a young age and deeply feel the brevity of life.
So it is my mission, with this one precious life I’ve been given, to spread as much light and hope as possible while making my dreams become a reality and helping others do the same.
I use joy and creativity as an act of resistance in this broken world.
I love to tell comedic stories that inspire empathy, hope, and silly goosery, and highlight the importance of mental health and grieving.
I am an award-winning actor, director, coach, and psychology graduate.
I have a Bachelor Arts (Music Theatre) with Distinction, from Federation University, and a Graduate Diploma in Psychology at UNSW, and have studied screen acting extensively with coaches including Les Chantery.
I am a much better actor when I create from a full cup.
I am a big believer in going gently and kicking butt at the exact same time. I love helping actors do the same by getting intentional with their career strategy so they can live fulfilling lives while enjoying an incredible yet sustainable career.
I pride myself in being a coach who walks the walk. I’m constantly working across the industry in stage and screen, auditioning for projects, failing forward, building resilience, and always staying hopeful.
I’m a coach for passionate actors who are ready to soar.
Here's how you can work with me to level up your career, book more jobs and skyrocket your confidence.
