"Biddy O'Loughlin is a master of deliciously dark humour delivered with a cheeky glint in her eye."
“
She has that special something that cannot be learned... a little like how I imagine Dylan first struck people at those early open mics in New York City."
"A breathtaking performance from O'Loughlin. A risky triumph for the festival. If you're not easily offended, Biddy's worth listening to. Just don't bring your mother."

BIO
Biddy O’Loughlin is a writer, actor, singer, filmmaker and comedian from Alice Springs.
​
She wrote a full length musical at 17 and put it on as an amateur production at her local theatre. The show sold out and was given a second run.
​
In 2011 Biddy wrote, produced and performed a solo show, The Girl Who Thought She Was Irish, at the Edinburgh International Arts Festival. The show travelled to Belfast, Geneva, Galway, Dublin, Limerick, London and Montreal.
In 2012, Biddy wrote a second solo show, Funny Rabbit, for the Melbourne Fringe. It went nowhere.
​
Biddy has a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Film and Television from the Victorian College of the Arts, the University of Melbourne.
​
After receiving the Lionel Gell Scholarship for excellence from the VCA in 2014, $10,000 became the budget for Biddy’s final year short – and the price in pounds on her Bandito’s head. A Western called Ten Thousand, the film earned Biddy a Young Director Award in Cannes, 2016. (Read the blog for a funny story!)
​
In 2017, Biddy was accepted into the Conservatory Program at The Second City Hollywood.
​​
As seen on Kill Tony and busking in the streets, her left elbow has also appeared in a Heinz Soup Commercial.
​
Currently cancelled for knowing what a woman is, Biddy is writing.
