Elizabeth Wright hails from small town South Dakota and has brought her Midwestern graciousness and work ethic with her to the Big Apple. She’s a proud alum of the University of South Dakota (BFA Musical Theater). Shortly after graduation, she made the leap to NYC where she gained a newfound passion for film & TV acting. A few months after moving, she booked a principal speaking role on HBO's Boardwalk Empire.

Elizabeth can be seen onscreen as the recurring role of Madison in the award-winning web series Working Out The Kinks (YouTube). She was seen onstage as Millie in the world premiere of End of the Line: a new play by Frank Danko (Long Island Theatre Collective). Additionally she performed in NYC Panto’s (Adjusted Realists) hilarious productions of PETER PAN-S3XUAL (Nana the dog/one woman ensemble) and SLEEPING BEAUTY (The Queen) , both of which received rave reviews from critics and audience members alike!

Most recently, Elizabeth performed in NYC Panto’s JACK’S BEAN STALKED as the roles of back end of a cow/Julia (November & December 2024). She also played the lead role in the short play BIT AND PIECES by Maryellen De Vivo, which performed the The Players Theatre Short Play Festival (October 2024). In addition to performing, Elizabeth was given the great honor of being inducted in her hometown’s Fine Arts Hall of Fame (October 2024).

Elizabeth co-wrote, is producing, and will be acting in a short film titled PENCILS DOWN, which is currently in pre-production and slated to shoot in late May 2025. She will also be making her directorial debut for the short play TRACK CHANGE by Maryellen De Vivo at The Players Theatre in June 2025.

Elizabeth continues to pursue film, TV, commercial, musical theatre, theatre, and print modeling in New York City and Jersey City.
