On the first episode of Do it Again But Better, Jess chats to actor, audiobook narrator, director, yoga teacher and all-around darling Annabelle Tudor about some of her audition highs and lows, including that time she auditioned in a garden bed, inadvertently going a little bit method in preparation for playing the Courtesan, and a mysterious case of the Snookies.

Since completing her BA (Acting) at Federation University Arts Academy Australia in 2016, Annabelle has enjoyed a varied theatrical career in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. Highlights have included originating the role of Hannah in the Australian cast of Puffs, playing Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing for Melbourne Shakespeare Company, and Witch One and Lady MacDuff in Macbeth for The Australian Shakespeare Company. She recently made her television debut on ABC’s Gruen and has also narrated over 30 audiobooks.

Annabelle will be playing Beatrice in Melbourne Shakespeare Company's March 2024 season of Much Ado About Nothing. You can find Annabelle on Instagram at @belletudor.
