“She’s extraordinary.
Special.
Her performance as Nora (A Doll’s House) was brilliant. It has stayed with me.”

Arabella graduated from Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in 2015, where she was awarded the Sarah Siddons Prize for Acting. Whilst in training Arabella starred as The Duchess in The Duchess of Malfi, Hermione in A Winter’s Tale and Kate in The Cripple of Inishmaan.
One of her first roles out of drama school was playing Californian temptress Patricia Ashbridge, alongside Mark Strong and Elizabeth Debicki in The Red Barn (The National Theatre). Arabella most recently played the bold and brash Miss Casewell in an 8 month run of The Mousetrap on The West End.
On screen, Arabella has most notably appeared as a regular in BBC’s A Very English Scandal where she played Jennifer, the secretary to Hugh Grant’s Jeremy Thorpe (cast by Lissy Holm). She also worked with Tim Burton on Disney’s Dumbo (cast by Susie Figgis).
