About Katherine

Katherine Lyle (she/her) is an actor, playwright, and director originally from Anchorage, Alaska now based in London as a recipient of the Global Talent Visa for Exceptional Promise. She received her BA in Musical Theatre from James Madison University and her MA in Classical Acting from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts.

Known for her ability to ebb between grounded truth and high comedy, Katherine has recently spent time working on various R&D projects originating characters in exciting pieces of new writing.

Katherine’s writing has been produced throughout London and the wider UK. Her work is a little spooky, a little stupid, very earnest, and often poetic. She is a co-founder of CKC Productions, a company producing North American women-led theatre in London.

An equestrian since the age of seven, Katherine has been a competitive hunter/jumper for over fifteen years. She is an avid reader, knitter, reality television fanatic, big believer in ghosts, and mother to two very soft cats named Franklin and Faye.
