Her first professional theatre role was with the Chapterhouse Theatre Company in a UK tour of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. She was subsequently cast in a number of short films (Broke, Noddon), music videos including work on Bollywood films and played the role of Kay in a feature length film White Admiral. She has also worked as a presenter and host for various media and press stunts including clients such as Lynx, Braun, News of the World and Sony Playstation.

Most recently, Elizabeth performed with the Foolish People Theatre Company in very experimental and ground-breaking plays called Dark Nights of the Soul as well as performing in various routines at football grounds as part of the News of The World Score Angels dance troupe.
