Chloë Johanna Wigmore was born in 1988 to an English mother and South African father in Chertsey, Surrey. By the age of 5 Chloë knew what she wanted to be- an Egyptologist as inspired by Harrison Ford in the "Indiana Jones" Trilogy. However, when she found out that adventures were not always on the cards, Chloë decided that if she was not able to have the adventures in real life, then adventures whilst acting would still do. Chloë worked with Peer productions at the age 18 after dropping out of fashion school for being to "risque" in her work and started working on community theatre based projects. A year later, "The Homophobia Project" which Chloe helped to originally devise for theatre, was given funding by Mediabox to turn into a feature film where Chloë played the bully, Bridget. The monologue Bridget has was shot in just one take. From there Chloë auditioned for the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York, was offered a place and Chloë then worked three jobs simultaneously to get the money together to go. Sadly, she fell short. But was offered a place at East 15 in London on their Foundation Course in 2008. From there Chloë gained a place in 2009 to train at The Birmingham School School of Acting and graduated in 2012 with a BA Honors in acting and has worked nearly continuously. "Short Trousers", written and directed by Nigel Moffatt won the 2013 Colorado Film Festivals Special Jury prize in which Chloë played Petula, a young woman in befriends Marilyn Monroe in her early years. Chloë has also been in an episode of "Triumph in Skies", the second series for TVB in Japan and continues to work in theatre recently adding choreographer to her repertoire of skills with the Parisian Theatre company Compaigna de la Filibuste on which she worked on "Don Juan" playing peasant girl Mathurine and devising the choreography for the production.
