Rachel Harper is a writer and actor from Wrexham, North Wales. A comedy writer at heart, she cut her narrative teeth in continuing drama writing ten-plus episodes of Casualty. Alongside this, she has also been commissioned to develop a wealth of projects within comedy and comedy-drama both in the UK and in the US, from commissioned scripts and sizzle reels to short-form set to air later this year. She’s also an impressionist having appeared on The Ellen Show in 2020.
