Meet The Team

Leigh McDonald

Agent

Leigh went to Guildford School of Acting from 1987 to 1990, and then went on to be a jobbing actor working in musical theatre, straight theatre and cabaret for 23 years.

In 2012, during her time at The Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester, she decided that treading the boards eight times a week away from home was no longer the way forward. Instead, she now runs her own cabaret act, Mac&Eden, with her friend – singer songwriter Joanna Eden, playing one nighters and a few different Festivals, (winning best cabaret act at the Brighton Festival 2016), alongside working as the Casting and PR Manager at The Young Actors Company. Cabaret and casting are a perfect fit!
