Beth Allen

As a teen Beth Allen spent four years playing Amber on hit series The Tribe, as well as acting in The Legend of William Tell. Five years after that, an acting career in Sydney beckoned. But shortly before she was due to fly, she was offered a role on Shortland Street. Allen would spend six years playing Doctor Brooke Freeman. Never one to slow down, Allen has also produced plays for Auckland's Basement Theatre.

I am pretty determined. I will create work for myself if I don't get work. I'll stick around. I don't think you'll be able to get rid of me very easily. Beth Allen in a Sunday News interview, 9 August 2010
